I think the headline of this article was the point but they should have said this too. You can't say a man is soo savvy and then imply he has left himself destitute. This is a lovely story - he's an influential and amazing man - but they shouldn't portray it without this detail. Thank you for sharing it.

[@hurricaneb6243]

I'm on the fence here because the definition of broke is not clear-cut. A survey in America by creditloan.com said that on average, people who had less than $900 USD in their bank account said they were broke. Your definition of broke maybe "I only have $10 in my pocket, and that's it", but then people dying from hunger in poor countries could just say "Nah fam, you're actually rich and privileged". For reference, Chuck donated at least 9 billion to charities and kept only around 2 million. That's 99.9777777778% of his money, gone. If I suddenly had to live on 0.0222222222222% of my current income, I'd say I'm broke. What's my point? Not sure tbh lol. Just presenting some facts that may change your perspective.

Andrew Carnegie who said “he wouldn’t pay his workers higher wages because they would drink it away.” Makes you wonder why those workers would drink it away. Maybe because the work was hard and after the Pinkerton Thugs killed striking workers Andrew Carnegie was an asshole. How about making the lives of your workers better as they are working for you not at the end of your life.

Kudos to Chuck for a life of living well and giving generously. God bless him and his family for good karmas forever.

[@usaprojectx]

How is this not the top story of 2020?!?!? One of the worlds richest men just donated 375000% of his wealth after a 40 year effort?!?!? As an 18 year old, this really opened my eyes to what the world prioritizes in the news

[@rennite9266]

I'm happy for this man. What he's done and the insperation he's been. Until today, I didn't know him. Nor will I ever get to meet him, but he has already influenced me.

I thought this was an Onion headline, but instead got respect for Chuck Freeney...

Look up Ratan Tata from India. He would be the 2nd richest person in the world after Bezos, but he gives away 98.5 percent of his income to charity each year. He holds the maximum share in the largest Conglomerate and company in all of India (TATA Sons and Enterprises, which also by the way saved companies like Ford)

@mikedoesseo I coild argue with you here. Perhaps you are right. Perhaps wrong. Why don't you google and search more on the topic. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@abigailfreckleton1694]

Wow, this is a really inspiring story and it makes you also realize thee is still a whole lot of good in this world. May God bless his family!!!

The world would be a better place if we had more people like him. God bless him.

Andrew Carnegie, wrote a book with the same ideal. If i ever get to that position I plan to do the same, expect I would at least keep some to pass to my children

Incredible story, amazing human being, tremendous wealth can be a burden unless you do good with it.

[@futurehofer1564]

There should be more people like him in the world

[@TheMotoManiac]

Hes such a good businessman that he wants to make sure his money is put to use efficiently and actually helps people. Not die and leave it up to some potentially corrupt or unqualified people.

[@ActronJimmy]

He's the rich one who'll get through the eye of a needle. These other rich sociopath scumbags who are greedy and care more about money than their fellow men and women, not so much.

[@slovokia]

Instead the rich scumbag type gets elected president and is adored by a cult of followers while the general public doesn’t know anything about Chuck Feeny.

[@ridearodeo8858]

You're just being insensitive. So he's suddenly a saint because he gave all his fortune at the end of his life. And by the way, if you have the opportunity to ever acquire wealth, you'd see how it feels to be rich. Then you'd understand if you should really judge people

How much of your income do you actually donate?

[@ActronJimmy]

@@HatovimLeTayis The better question is if I need donations and the answer is yes. If you'd like to contribute please speak up now.
