    Many people say this. However of those who talk the talk, barely any ever walk the walk.

    However I think if you are born an heir to a billionaire, you’d lack the perspective which might foster selfless philanthropy.

    I’d like to think that if someone from the working class would randomly get such money they would. But it still seems unlikely.

      self preservation isn’t a selfless motive, but if it results in philanthropy then that’s a win.
