Mark Zuckerberg and 17 other very wealthy people...

Mark Zuckerberg and 17 other very wealthy people have agreed to give the majority of their riches away in a Giving Pledge made by Warren Buffet and Bill Gates. This makes a total of 58 pledges so far from America’s richest individuals and families, this means eventually those 58 people will have donated at least $139 billion! So if you were rich on the scale of this would you be happy to give away half of your money in charity donations? Giving away half of $100 million means you will still have $50 million so it’s not like you’re going to be broke. If I donated half of my money I’d have about $200 to my name lol!
