19．Tykoon is an online website that allows you to teach your child financial principles through allowances assignment（零钱分配） of tasks and daily chores．As the parent，you can assign a cash value to the things you want your child to do．Then，your child can go in，accept the task and add to their wish list of what they would like to purchase with the money that they earn．
Let's start with the parent side of things．The parent must be the one to set up the account．You simply enter your information and your child's information to get started．You are then able to assign allowance amounts to your child．
Then you can add tasks for your child to accept and connect them with their weekly allowance．Your child is then able to accept or decline their tasks．They can see how much each task earns，how often they need to do it and what they will get if they do！They can even earn no cash encouragement such as extra TV time or staying up late!

18．For decades，the San Francisco Bay area has been the heart of the computer technology industry．Many of the biggest technology companies have their headquarters in the area called Silicon Valley．But the area has not always been associated with charity．
Now，a new generation of entrepreneurs（企业家）appears to be changing Silicon Valley．One example is Marc Benioff，a donor（捐赠者），who has called on wealthy donors to give more to their communities．He also is the founder of Salesforce．com，a computer services company in San Francisco who has helped build a children's hospital and given millions of dollars to non-profit organizations in the city．
Money from the technology industry has also started to change the face of charity．Benjamin Soskis writes about the history and ideas behind charity in America．His articles have appeared in The Atlantic magazine and a number of major publications．He says，traditionally，donors have given after they spent much of their lives building up wealth．Usually donors are in their 70s．But an increasing number of people appearing on the list of top donors are younger than 40years of age．Benjamin Soskis says that is something new．"There's a whole new model that's appearing in which people give and accumulate at the same time．"
Some of the young donors on this year's top 50list have started to change in the way people see charity．That is especially the case in the San Francisco area，where giving money and making money appear to be coming together．"I think it's fair to say that charity is now a part of the Silicon Valley identity．"
