Not a bad person...but to say,"we need to help the poor" and then to have a home value that could buy 10+ homes (in most areas) certainly feels askew. Nothing

Nothing stops her and similar from donating a higher percentage of their wealth to non-profits. She could have brought a $2M home - and lived quite well - and donated $1M*. But she didn't. What are we to make of that, if not hypocritical?
* I understand it's a mortgage. But she could have went smaller and donated the difference monthly.
