Mark Zuckerberg has pledged to give away 99 per cent of his shares in Facebook, which at their current market valuation, is worth around $45 billion. The giveaway will take place in Zuckerberg's lifetime. He's starting early - most billionaires, from Bill Gates to Warren Buffett, wait until their later years to start giving away their fortune.

The more money Gates 'gives away' the richer he gets. Same as all the others with 'charitable' foundations.

All this talk of rich people giving away their loose change...

Answer my point from 10:36 (...the parable talks of the old woman who had one coin in her purse, and gave it away to 'the poor'.)

Whose is the greater gift?

A

Ex Mrs Bezos gives away $4.5bn of her $60bn stash.

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2020/dec/16/mackenzie-scott-ex-wife-of-jeff-bezos-gives-away-4bn-in-four-months-amazon-covid

That is wonderful, but less than ten per cent of what she’s got.

Surely that percentage matters?
