Having trouble working the prime numbers into the mix. The product of the first 3 prime numbers (2x3x5) is 30, which happens to be the number of housewives who were in the first Tzu Chi Foundation, in which I find almost verbatim the second portion of your question. ESkog 19:40, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Clarification. On Prime number we find that the first three prime numbers are 2, 3, and 5. Multiplying them together yields 30 (the number of housewives); from the other perspective, 30 factors into exactly three primes. I used Google to search wikipedia for housewives society saving money and the Tzu Chi Foundation was one of the top results; I observed the majority of the question there. There wasn't much more in my thought process than that, so if that's not adequate I'll have to keep digging... ESkog 17:17, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
