Evolutionarily speaking we should be chasing animals in hunter-gatherer clans. The fact that we are slowly transcending the bounds of biological evolution should be celebrated: we have culture, art, and science now. And what we consider family (the ones we want to be happy) is slowly growing (with the occasional small step back). That guy ensured his kids had marvelous opportunities and is now trying to provide marvelous opportunities for other people in his "extended family". Jeez, how misanthropic or selfish do you have to be for this to not make you happy?

I never said I disapproved of him giving away his money. I just found it odd. Like, it doesn't make logical sense to me.

But I also have a deep-rooted mistrust of most charities, since I have first-hand knowledge of how many of them mismanage their funds.
