Money can't buy happiness indeed , but it can change life.
It buys crazy ass happiness.
u must not have enough money to solve em- ariana grande
temporary happiness@@aboxthatdrools
Money buys happiness. Anyone who says it doesn't has never been without.
whoever said that got too much damn money
She made their life happy, made my day happy just watching them scream in joy, what a career life saver!
Hope all the doctors from this college will pass this generosity to their patients and the cycle will continue.
The amount of pressure that will be lifted from these students, both during their studies and afterwards, is immense.
I like how he knew something big was coming and turned the camera horizontal.
Why do I feel like I am one of those medical students for I too felt so happy and excited hearing the gift from Mrs. Ruth.
God bless you all.
Thank you Prof. Ruth for your exemplary decision.
What an incredible gift that will multiply by a thousand fold and beyond where/when these future doctors and scientists will contribute to mankind.
What a gift!! What a heart!! What a compassion!! What a great human being. We wish you all the best. Hope these young Drs will bring their bests to their communities one day.
Amazing. Amazing. Happy for all these people. May they return the favor to the community with their medical expertise.
After googling, the university's tuition fee is about 200,000 for 4 years. That means her 1B donation can cover 5000 degrees. It's a lot, but it's not forever.
Happy for the students
Your point is well taken.
If they invest the $1 Billion in a fund and use the profits to cover tuition it might last a bit longer.
And if graduates also give back to the school then it might sustain it further. :)
Yes, I hope the alumni support this to go for longer.
Happily; that’s incorrect; the money will be invested and properly managed and continue to grow, literally forever. Huge amounts of money properly invested will make a huge amount of money forever.
it would likely be an endownment
This lady rocks for doing this
That made me cry.
Before everyone started cheering, there was a guy near the front who put his hand up...I wonder what his question was! 😂😂😂🙋🙋🙋
Saw that too, he s even wearing the surgeon gown
He's dressed as staff to I think he probably knew in advance what she was about to announce and just couldn't hold back his reaction for much longer.
It makes SOOOOO happy to see these smart and hardworking college students be in joy, especially knowing that someone does care about them and their future. My only hope is that when do become successful, that will carry the torch and do the same for other future college students. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
So incredible scene you see. Super warm.
What an incredibly generous gift from dr ruth! Literally brought tears to my ears!
Can you imagine how the trajectory of these people’s lives and thousands more to come will be changed by this one generous decision? Amazing! We need more of this from the ultra rich!!
All colleges should be free.
no
@@M42-Orion-Nebula Weird you want your kids to pay to be intelligent, put 1c on the tax dollar and bingo free education and health care, but no you'd rather it go to an already over bloated military, social army but not education or health, very strange from a Europeans point of view.
Anything with medicine, yes! All the rest, no! People that will be saving lives deserve it! Not some liberal arts degree…
@@101stairborne6 if other countries can make their colleges free why cant we?
Nothing is free. Someone somewhere is paying for it either with higher taxes or higher prices of goods.
What a generous woman, GOD bless her.
Many other developed countries have fully subsidized education. But , they're tough to enter and stay there. Their doctors who enter the work.force don't have $200+K in debt..
Bless you maam❤
you can say they are waiting for it, like they heard it before was announced.
1:07 is when the good part starts
Wow!
This is such an investment for the future. Best wishes to these young men and women.
I don’t think they ever saw that coming.
Imagine the person who got accepted but chose not to go.
Congratulates to turion free students.
That's so fucking cool 👏👏👏
This is a public health bonanza. Now people can pursue the less lucrative but equally necessary specialties.
WHY AM I CRYING
Ok, I better not see that $20 Co-pay on my next physical.
Would be possible for every Student in the US, but the system wants loans and credits.
GodBless ❤️
Thats the best: Studying Medicine in Europe for free - simulation lol
Diese Spende wird in die Geschichte eingehen, so gut platziertes Geld, das der gesamten Bevölkerung zugute kommt, was für eine großartige Frau! Wir wünschen allen Schülerinnen und Schülern viel Glück und danken Ihnen für Ihre Bemühungen und Ihre Arbeit!
True people of God (Gottesman).
The studenst who graduated that year with a student dept💀
They are getting their last year reimbursed
beautiful gift to the life savers of tomorrow.
i mean we need more doctors lol this feels like a necessity
The local fast food joints are looking for new burger flippers.
😢❤
That is it, I think I’m gonna transfer there. I heard it’s an AMAZING school. .😅
YOU GET A CAR! YOU GET A CAR! YOU GET A CAR!
I would be jumping for joy too if I had $200K in school debt.
I imagine that by the time you become a billionaire, material possessions have long since lost their appeal to you. You can buy anything and everything, so nothing is really exciting anymore. But I can't imagine the feeling of being able to do this ever getting old.
All those who get mommy and daddy to pay tuition are like..wtf
Pay it forward find those cures.
The students will pay heavily. The tuition will be taken out of their pay checks forever. The universities that overcharged them are making bank.
It is this great country and the ability of capitalism that enables people like this to make such generous donations! Link live the US financial system!
Is Bangladeshi students read here?
In God we trust but most of all..in Human Beings..😊 1:45
In God we trust but most of all in Human Beings
I wonder how much funds they have😂
She donated $1 billion
🌸🏏👰🏻♀️👨🏻✈️👨👩👧👨👩👧🤩🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️
...this only happens in this beautiful country of us....be proud and keep working hard and honestly for it...!!!
yeah well, in most other western countries college and university education is considered a basic right and is free anyway, so... good job for having a single comparable college to the rest of the world...
LOL! Get Out of your American bubble. I live in Germany, Here is studying for Everbody free.
What ist the next Thing youre proud of? Your medical system?! 😂😂
USA is a f*cking 3rd world country...
The whole world is laughing at you.
''Beautiful country'' sure, most of Europes countries already have free or super low cost education, as its seen as a basic human right.. The USA is not beautiful by any means.
who's gonna tell him
Sorry, I can't hear you over your American exceptionalism. Also as others have pointed out, many countries around the world have free tuition to begin with, so they don't have to rely on the whims of random rich people.
No such thing as "free tuition" someone, somewhere paid for it.
Yes, she did mate, with 1bln dollars (enough for a while) 😅
@@NathalieNoZen correct. She paid for it. Mate. 🤙
Biden turned down student loans chrap stricks
You are miserable
What exactly got stuck up your ass 😂
this isn’t because of biden
English, please.
Its not really free someone will pay for it, the usual suspect wuld be the tax payers. Not unless the faculty and whole school staff will work for free, but as long as they are receiving tgeir salaries ans school spend for maintenance? Someone is goin to pay for those expenses.The correct term is their tuition has been payed by the tax payers.
What do you mean? She donated $1 billion dollars. Her husband worked in Wall Street
@artistaroundtheblock2047 so someone did pay for it, she paid for it thus my point! it not free because she needs to pay. People should stop abusing the word "Free" because someone somehow has to pay. She simply should have said you don't have to pay because i paid it for you. In this world we can only count things that's truly free, the air we breath is free but not when you're sick though.
@@joshi6898 your whole point was that taxpayers paid for it. Now you're just being pedantic and doubling-down
Top earners getting free education.....not that impressed.
disappointed for you....maybe one of these doctors will save your life one day!!
@@nancysexton545 and then be in debt to them for the rest of my life paint off medical procedures that couldn't afford to begin. Knowing I'm getting overcharged but they got the free education.
I have a feeling you're salty because that money didn't get somehow into the hands of your Mango Messiah. Call it a feeling.
Yes, free tuition off the backs of the working class.
Uh . . . her billionaire husband donated the money.
They should pay just like everyone else
Dude just be happy for them
So many people who are passionate in the medical field cannot pursue that career because of how high tuition is, so many potential doctors, physicians and nurses lost because of the money grab college is. And even for the people who pay tuition, they are stuck repaying loans even after retirement.
This is something we should be striving for, if we want more people in these fields we need to make tuition more accessible for everyone. Whoever donated that 1B just changed the lives of an entire community.
Found the person with student debt.
@@iintendtoboilyourteeth6573lol
exactly, ask a youtuber or a stocktrader to save your life!!
