    I’m in debt and barely able to live. My retirement plan is basically to kill myself when I’m old.

    They have the means to donate far more and still live a life of opulent luxury, if anything need donations.

    So no, that’s a shit argument for why we should be happy they threw some scraps at the issue and asked others to donate their livelihood.

      So you are saying it would have been better for them to donate nothing and not stir you and everyone else up?

      You know what though, you can be angry and bitter because of your situation all you want, and those two can still be happy with themselves because they have donated a lot of money over the years to charitable causes. I know I wouldn’t care what some dumbasses on the internet think when I’ve donated $10,000,000 to help people and am creating a fund to maintain it. And this isn’t the first time either, it all adds up, and it’s a lot of money that will help people.

      Loving your life this bitter at people better off than you isn’t healthy. I have had hard times and didn’t blame anyone else or feel like I was owed anything. I just did what I had to do to get out of it, and tried to help others when I could.
