MacKenzie Scott has been giving away a ton of money recently. Don't know if that puts her in a better category.

It worked for Bill Gates temporarily. Has Warren Buffet been canc^H^H^Honsequenced yet?

You can’t be a billionaire without lots of people calling you an asshole.

You don’t make a billion dollars by being generous to other people.

Chuck Feeney would disagree.

He didn't get rich by giving it away though? He also gave a bunch of it to already wealthy institutions like Cornell, so even the philanthropy is kind of typical billionaire nonsense.

No.
