So not to long ago someone asked on reddit if every billionaire in the world gave their money to everyone, the math came out to everyone getting 1056.00 dollars each.
No I don't think so. And my reasoning is, if you were to compare 3rd world countries to ours, or even some poor ppl in the US, they consider people just doing 'better' then them, 'rich'
I just put myself in the situation with what I have and worked for, and l wouldn't agree that there is justice or whatever, for killing someone who has more then you.
There is a conscious choice required to become a billionaire which amounts to exploring workers in order to achieve excess gains. And there’s a choice made when deciding to keep that wealth to yourself. Both choices here are being judged not simply the amount that one has gained.
That's actually more than I thought. That is meaningful money. I honestly don't think anyone NEEDS 1 billion dollars and if you really could cash it out like that I would.
But in reality most of that wealth can't be liquidated. It would take decades.
What do you think is a more meaningful/better way to donate?
I don't understand the question. I thought 1k let person would actually be nice
