The legendary investor’s Warren Buffett quest is to give away more than 99% of his fortune continues. So far, he’s donated more than $40 billion where it’s being put to work on poverty and healthcare initiatives in the U.S. and developing countries.
The former New York City mayor and Bloomberg LP cofounder has poured more than $11 billion into charitable causes, focusing on climate change, gun control and public health. He’s spent more than $1 billion to curb tobacco use over the last decade, and in 2018 announced a $1.8 billion pledge to Johns Hopkins University. In September, Bloomberg also announced a $100 million pledge over the next four years to fund scholarships at four historically Black medical schools.
Leonard Lauder the elder son of makeup maven Estee Lauder gave his massive Cubist art collection—worth more than $1 billion—to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2013. He raised millions for the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation. The organization has awarded more than $150 million in funding for research on Alzheimer’s disease at biotech companies and academic centers in 19 countries.
The Oklahoma oil and banking baron George Kaiser is the largest philanthropist in his state. Focused on his home city of Tulsa, his George Kaiser Family Foundation has paid out nearly $1.3 billion in contributions and grants to childhood education and community health programs in the city.
And this is just the tip of the philanthropist iceberg Cankerpuss.
Oh give me a break. Rich people like Warran Buffett and Michael Bloomberg giving away hundreds of millions of dollars is like me giving a thousand dollars to charity. It's easy to give away millions and millions when there are billions resting in a bank account making millions every year in interest alone. Besides, the only reason they give this money away is they'd rather it go to the causes of their choice rather than to the Federal Government. There is nothing noble about what they give away because of what they keep hidden away.
Well, Mr. Merwood, as I alluded to in my previous posting, I cannot contribute millions to a worthy charity because I am not one of those fortunate enough to be a millionaire. I have, however, given thousands of dollars to various charities and churches over my lifetime. I believe in tithing and have always given 10% of my wealth. Like I said before, it would be easy to fork over 100 million to my charity of choosing as long as I keep that 1 billion resting in my savings account drawing millions in interest each year. These wealthy people don't SACRIFICE a damned thing and you damned well know it.
When I think people are assholes I am going to call them assholes. You sir, are a bonafide stinking asshole. A real pantload. A pile among piles.
1st Grade ditty: "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but names will never hurt me!"
Yeah of course, if the universe had a cause - then it means that YOUR "God" was the cause. So, of all the hundreds of "Gods", it was your "God" who created and fine-tuned the Universe. And 13-billion years later he sneaked some poorly written contradictory scriptures to a few illiterate humans on a teeny tiny planet so that all of the Universe would know him. Give me a fuckin break! Its total bullshit!
And you are paying your hard-earned money to be brainwashed with this nonsense every Sunday. What does this tell us about you?
There truly is no hate quite like Christians Love! Religious folk prove every day that arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand. I'm still waiting for you to say something, anything, positive about one of your fellowmen. You are filled with hate.

How many millions have you given to worthy causes such as medical research Cankerpuss?
Your problem is that you HATE successful people because you are a redneck loser! You think everybody else is an asshole just like you.

Well, you sure prove his point as you think the same thing.
Oh, the irony of one asshole calling another you know an ASSHOLE.
Yep, I done it but I also see it.
fellow assholes wear the name proudly.
He and his ex wife. funding abortions. by the millions?

Why am I guessing you are a man?
