{{cquote|I started an MBA last year after spending a few years working in the world of marketing and advertising. Always reticent to spend hundreds of dollars on textbooks that will sit on my shelf collecting dust or be resold for a fraction of their original cost, I turned to Wikipedia for information. My life has been blessed. |
|||
In addition to being clearly accurate, it is updated more quickly than textbooks, and the logic of the connecting information has helped me pass my classes one-by-one. |
|||
Because Wikipedia saved me money on my textbooks, I am giving my textbook money to Wikipedia. |
|||
Thank you for Wikipedia. }} |

{{cquote|Wikipedia touches my family's life everyday. My wife and I daily read atleast 2 pages of new content and this forms the basis of a lot of our conversations and future forays into art and culture. We both feel that Wikipedia has contributed as much to our education and development as had our 16 odd years of schooling. Its non-biased approach to sensitive issues helps us get a proper perspective time and again. }} |
