I personally know many rich people. They didn't get rich by giving their money away. They're a shrewd lot who work hard to make more of what they've already got. Even people who win big at lottery, etc often end up poor after a couple of years of being generous with their good fortune. Don't get me started on Bill G. (using the above arguments he owes me a pub based on the accrued interest for the drinks I bought him the 80's.) Even his philanthropic activities are calculated business decisions with considerable tax and other benefits.
