So, double standards in this thread?
On the other hand, how much of their income do Lady Bey and Jay-Z donate to homeless shelters, black colleges, and other humanitarian efforts? Well, it would seem from a Google search, at least $14 million, but I don't know their total income. They established the BeyGood Foundation to help in many ways.
Warren Buffett, the second wealthiest person in the US, lives in a relatively modest home and has "pledged to give away 99% of his fortune to philanthropic causes."
So, it seems everything is relative and subjective.
To me, the point is not just the money people "make," it's the money people spend on themselves and how much they help others.
"From those to whom much is given, much will be expected."
