    I have been paying a huge chunk of my paycheck towards social security ever since I started working full time at the age of 16. If I continue putting money into social security and never see it because I die at 70, how is that fair? I would

    I never said I disapproved of him giving away his money. I just found it odd. Like, it doesn't make logical sense to me. But I also have a deep-rooted mistrust of most charities, since I have first-hand knowledge of how many of them mi
