“I will give away virtually all my wealth”: The Microsoft billionaire has pledged his foundation will distribute $US200 billion over the next 20 years.
I don’t believe there is a spectrum at all. If you keep going to get to that level of wealth you have a fucked up mind. Most people would be content and stop.
Now I could see that if you make something and go from nothing to selling for a billion then maybe, but even then I’d want rid of most of that wealth as I don’t need that much.
Well if you just manage your money properly, it grows. I would argue it’s better to do that and give you money away rather than not manage your money properly. In the end, more money goes to good causes that way.
If they “stopped” that would mean leaving their money in a bank account sleeping. The only entity benefiting from this would be the bank.
