Give it away now instead you piece of shit. If he actually gave a shit he would have donated it all to charities already. It's just a billionaire farse, fuck him and the rest of em.

He is. He is already giving it all away. He's been doing it for 25 years and he will continue to do it for the next 20 years.

You have to understand that his value grows over time and selling his stocks en masse would decrease their market value. He's been maximizing the amount of good done very effectively.

Careful now. Don't go painting all charities as a form of tax avoidance just because a lot are used for that.

There are many great charities for many great causes out there.

Depends if you are talking about big charities or actual charities
