They often do not pay any tax at all and if they did so a little more, the government could make a policy with it. Now, for example, with Bill Gates it depends far too much on what he happens to find interesting. That is often heard criticism of these donations. It should be a democratic process but now it is a one man's process.
Often they are also PR techniques to divert attention from something. This was so in the case of Facebook. It turned out that evil things happened on all sides to keep making money.
And often the donation turns out to be given to an institution over which the donating party also has 100% control. For example, a large amount seems to go to charity, but actually it is pocket vest pocket.
What is effective altruism? Economist dr. Kellie Liket (Impact Centre Erasmus) calls for more sensible charity giving. After all, not every charity is equally effective. https://youtu.be/__XNJVz8JRg
I can only see the good in it. They're people too, just because they have a lot of money, people act so crazy about them. I'm just glad they're doing so many good things with the money.
On the one hand, agree with you. That of Mr. Beast remains a good example. Well, you're taking “the bigger picture”: It's nice what Elon Musk does with that church in Paris and he also seems to have donated drones to Ukraine. I'm sure he did even more good th...

Well, you're taking “the bigger picture”: It's nice what Elon Musk does with that church in Paris and he also seems to have donated drones to Ukraine. I'm sure he did even more good things. But his twitter approach to fire hundreds of people who, among others,. managing the privacy section, I don't think he's a convenient move. (If that info that was recently discussed on Dutch television in a talk show is correct).) In the meantime, accounts that were banned for good reason are coming back. (Not all accounts were properly banned, that aside.) Sure, no one does everything perfectly, but isn't that tying the cat to the bacon? (In this one: asking for problems?)
This is a controversial topic, donations always bring suspicion, but the thing is that many of these donations avoid paying taxes, it is better then to donate it to whoever we want
Well, there will always be, less successful, people who will criticize everything. If we have to take all these aspirations into account, nothing is still possible. Fortunately, most successful people don't care about it. Would there be a connection?
