> ‘I have not donated money to anyone or any organization. I also do not believe in loaning money to friends and relatives, no matter what’

Smart man. He did the right thing and I would gladly do the same in exchange for that kind of money any day of the week. Ironically, the idealists who don't understand the risks of letting people know how much money you have are also the ones who will suffer the most when they hear people's sob stories about why they need $X or why things are so hard from them; so they have even more reason not to publicize their wealth.




Donating is ok but I'd kind of recommend being anonymous or they'll bug you for more for ever after.
