too rich?

[downbeatplumb]

Couldn't agree more Cinjin. The way I see it, one should endeavor to earn enough to look after themselves and their family (and to ensure they are able to look after themselves after you're gone). Whatever is left over should be given away to those who need it more.

Or preferably taken by a government agency to help where it is really needed.

Charity by itself, does not really work.

Only when governments get involved does real change occur.

In the victorian era there was the tradition of the rich people to give money to help the poor.
The result. The poor still starved and froze. Only when a real solution like unemployment benefit came in did the poor people have a relatively decent existence.
