>What else could this guy possibly do to demonstrate that he is genuinely not interested in material wealth? Let me start with the caveat that I don't really care if Zuck is "interested in material wealth" or not. That said, if he wants to prove it, he needs to give it all away in a way where he doesn't have control over what happens to it anymore. Putting your money in a "charitable foundation" that you control is not giving it away; you still decide how, where, and in what quantities it gets spent. You can still give people you like a salary as "employees of the charity". None of that counts as giving it away. Giving it away is actually giving it to others in one fell swoop and letting those people decide what happens to it. If he really wanted to be egaliatarian and de-elevate himself to the level of a "normal guy", he'd just divide his shares by the number of Facebook employees and evenly disperse. In my book, "I moved all my money into a different entity which I still control" is not giving all your money away, it's just paper pushing.
