  • Austrian heiress Marlene Engelhorn announces plan for €25m giveaway - Austria abolished inheritance tax a number of years ago. Marlene is putting together a team of 50 austrians, whom she will pay for their time, from across the social sphere who will decide how to spend the money. She's very literally doing her own taxation. An odd story but somewhat relevant given how unclear the future will be with pervassive autonomous AI, crypto currencies, as well as things like UBI and token based governance. I'm really curious to see how her project goes. Marlene if you need a web developer please get in touch with me :) www.bbc.com #
