nice little story for a mega zillionaire to sponser one little boy......

I have the very same attitude toward the super rich.One reads occasionally about Bill Gates or Zuckerberg pledging a billion dollars for transgender surgical clinics and things like that.I'm not even minutely impressed by such showboating.

What Gates and Zuckerberg *could* do that would impress me is to *secretly* and *anonymously* give all but $10 million of their net worth to charities that help the hungry of Africa and Asia and,at the same time,pledge to give,each year,all but $750,000 of their annual income to those same charities.

That way they'd still be wealthier than 99.895% of the world's population and a million (or more) poor Africans and Asians would have food,water,health care,etc.

Except they wouldn't - as you well know. Instead the charity would secretly launder 50% of the money to the Democratic Party and the rest would go to the charity's "expenses" and to buy off a few dictators and several hundred members of their entourages, who would get new villas, new Rolls Royces, new caches of AK-47s, and several thousand bottles of much better Scotch. :)
