How about by tomorrow you sadistic evil fuck?
You may have spent billions to look pretty and nice to people but nobody should forget how he got those billions in the first place
I've been sending his chain emails along since the 90s so he owes me some serious interest.
...and still be a billionaire.
Why should oligarchs get to decide where the proceeds of their exploitation get spent?
Don't advertise scum. This guys is trying to literally spend 99% of his fortune to wipe off all the shit he has done.

Doesn't that leave him still with something like $2 billion? I'm not knocking the philanthropy, but also, his safety net is going to remain about $2 billion dollars larger than ~~mine~~ most every other human being on this entire planet. And it will continue to accrue value at a higher rate than inflation as long as the good ol' American engine keeps on chugging along as normal.
From his vantage point, this sacrifice will likely impact neither his daily lifestyle nor his long-term comfort one iota.
It's a great thing he's doing, and I want to be clear about that. He's giving a boatload of money to charity. And I also don't know what else he might be doing with the remainder. I might be being an asshole. I haven't even read the article. I just saw that fuckin guy and the shining headline and had a strong reaction.
