This is silly and soooo subjective! You don't judge who is a better person based on how much money they give away. We're all better than some despot dictator in Africa that donated millions to charity to buy his way into heaven-- please!! I would argue w you that a schoolteacher who volunteers with the United Way on weekends is just as good, if not better, than a person who gives away half their wealth but still keeps $30b for themselves! What's the big deal in doing that?! I can't think of anyone who wouldn't do the same given the same situation! Frankly, it's not about the money, it's about the time and we have no idea exactly how Bill G and Steve J spend their time. Just be thankful each is doing their part and let someone far more omnipotent than us mere mortals figure out who was better.
