Billionaire Chuck Feeney achieves goal of giving away his fortune

quote [ Chuck Feeney has achieved his lifetime ambition: giving away his $8bn fortune while he is still around to see the impact it has made. ]

A remarkably mature attitude - and more fun than spending it all on lobbyists and prostitutes. And prostitutes for the lobbyists. And lobbyists for the prostitutes. It's prostitutes and lobbyists all the way down.

I mean, how many lobbyists does one man need? Anything more than three is just excessive.

It's not the winning, but the taking part that matters.

Good for him.

But Doesn't matter, he's rich and that's good enough of a reason for a lot of people to hate him regardless. And inb4 "he probably murdered babies just to get to where he is today".

Is philanthropy good? Yes. Is it democratic? No. Philanthropy means that the rich get to decide what programs are important and who is worthy of aid.

But doesn't matter, strawman.
