Someone with £50m in the bank and homes around the globe could easily 'win' by giving away most of it and living in one or even two homes like most of us mere mortals - albeit a lot bigger and nicer of course and comfortably far away from any of the 'worthy' social causes they say they support so as not to be inconvenienced by them. Furthermore these people don't suddenly stop earning when they donate, they have massive annual income which can easily replace what they've donated, all too often off the back of the rest of us who buy their products, watch their films or whatever. The truth is that when you have more money than you know what to do with it's really not difficult to 'donate' what to the rest of us would be sums approaching or exceeding a lifetime's income. That doesn't render you immune from criticism when hypocrisy is evident however.

Do you like actually anyone? You are always whining about everything. Give us all a break and contribute something constructive for a change ..
