what kind of life would you prefer?

Quote from Dalmation:

Waiting untill you have X dollars to give it away is a cop out.

Just take a 1000.00 right now and give it to a homeless person. The feeling is exactly the same as if you have 100 mill and give away a million at a time.

Don't hesitate, go do it right now! Or you want when you have 100 million.

You think it is an intelligent and effective thing to do giving a random homeless person $1K?

I'm pretty sure I have a better vantage point over my own life, my own family and my own friends than you have :p

People seem to have a real problem relating to things outside their own reality, especially the ones that use their nose as a wind direction indicator.

I don't give money away to get good feelings as you stated. That's pure selfishness-- yes giving 1000.00 to a homeless person is much more intelligent and effective than giving it to any organization or group. True charity is one on one.

In addition, say you will give when you are rich, but don't now is completely bogus.
 
I went down to one of the homeless shelters here in Denver, CO. and actually did the work....I think that the hundred million dollars would free up my time to do more of this.

Throwing cash at something may not be the answer....someone has got to do the time.

Better yet: Give the $1,000 to me right now. I promise I'll go out and spend it in Mojitos and lapdances, and will come back here and tell the whole ordeal, and everything I had to go through.

It's always good to volunteer. But I believe choosing a person and giving em a grand or 2 is a very powerful way to give back. If you don't trust the homeless angle, look in the local paper to find someone in need --- house burned down no insurance, sick kid. Whatever and anonymously fund what they need instead of giving cash directly. I happen to trust people, but if you don't buying what they need is he way to go.
