Putting your money into philanthropy is used by the rich to avoid
criticism and have an organization (foundation) so they aren't bugged by
requests for money from charities. They can just point to their
foundation and tell the charity to talk to them. If you had won the
Powerball last week a financial advisor would probably advise to do
same. There is no mystery.

For billionaires, making more money is a form of game like poker and
football. Money becomes a reinforcement of their success. But in
spiritual terms, this thinking is absurd since they're making matter
as the most valuable aspect of life. The most foolish example of
money hunger is the picture of Mayweather, the boxer, lining up his
dollar bills on a table to be admired or counted.
But there are billionaires who donate their money to philanthropy and
yet are supposedly atheists. So, the world is a mystery and it's best
to leave it at that.

Do you think this is fair or right? Billionairism is mental disease
called greed. And don't tell me they're the jobs creators. It's small
businesses that are the jobs creators. The big companies buy up the
small ones and lay people off. Acquisitions are a bad business fad.
Corporations should be limited in size and lifespan. And taxes should
increase of the wealthy to discourage wealth accumulation and
contracting billionairism.
