They must have already because to accumulate that much money someone must have been working very hard for them. Not one single individual is worth that much. They can't even spend the money they have. Not enought time. Numbers are so big I can't get my head around it. It's insane. How did the $ get there in the first place? And we all have to applaude Mr nice guys?
...Not!

My point. Paying better wages to people in poor countries for what they actually work for. Then they live better, get some self-esteem back, get educated, free, etc..etc.. it's a snowball effect. Everybody's better off. Of course profit margins will suffer.

Now that sounds like the real world we live in
Don't get me wrong, I have no problems with them splashing money away. I have a problem with them blowing their horn doing so. Money is not an issue for them anymore. Would be like me leaving a half eaten burger on the side of the table for some hungry bugger and say how good I am trying to feel good about it? There are a lot of other people helping by doing hard work who actually give something that is valuable to them. Their time. I never liked the center stage clowns who like to be in the light because
they can afford to.
