people have a weird conception that donating to charity means someone is a good person. they get tax exemptions for these donations! and a lot of wealthy people can just start their own charity that functions as a think tank to support their reactionary politics. that's how the Heritage Foundation came to be.
aside from that, she'll still be a billionaire. --- peanut butter and dick ... Copied to Clipboard!

CyricZ posted...Not gonna lie. Hell, 99.9% is better. That's 37 million she'd have left to work with. One could even easily make the case for 99.99%. Yes, I'm sure a lot of this is tied up in investments and businesses, but let's be real. Instead of Jeff and Mackenzie being one combined billionaire, we now have two billionaires.

I always find it funny how people who don't do anything at all are always the ones crying that someone giving away 18 billion dollars to charity isn't enough. 41 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. 42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents. 43 Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. 44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everythingall she had to live on. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+12%3A41-44&version=NIV --- Sigful user. ...
