I'll be checking out Micheal's fundraiser. When I was at Lalande and told Amaury that my asthma inhaler in the US cost 300$ he was rightfully appalled - the same inhaler was 8$ at a French pharmacy. It's hard for the rest of the world to imagine what American's have to pay for basic healthcare much less catastrophic care - even with insurance. I just want to point out that last Christmas you featured some clips of Isabelle and Percy giving food and gifts to the homeless in South Africa. I was so moved by this. And equally moved by the video of Gerald attending the art show of another charity recipient. I would love to see more Chateau Unwrapped content about the charities you support. It's important work you're doing with this channel.

[@machellep1]

The reason the cost is so high in the USA is we are the only country that allows pharmaceutical companies to recoup development costs. Therefore we pay outrageous amounts for medication so the rest of the world doesn’t have to.

[@aceoline]

@@arnicepernice8656 The Food Buckets were appropriate for the Location, Time and Culture. This is a lifestyle channel and Charity is part of their lifestyle. YOUR comment is odd and not in good taste.

[@EmilyBoltz]

A year ago I paid $50/for my combivent inhaler. This year they wanted $300. I feel like we are paying for the pandemic through our so called insurance.

[@lolodee3528]

@@aceoline Isabel's clip moved me fully, she personally offered her gifts: she thoughtfully chose, assembled and gave from the heart. I seldom see such as she did.

[@noreenen2347]

@@arnicepernice8656 you dont have to offer assistance to anyone. it is purely voluntary and this person was part of the lalande community so i personally was happy to help. your cynicism would be better directed at a rich country and government which force people to ask for charity for their basic medical care.
