the 20 "most generous" people in the world
#1
There's something wrong with this thread. It's title should have been "The 20 richest men in the world and their generosity index". If fact that isn't really true either since the most generous people in the world are those unsung heroes who have very little and give of themselves to help others. The 20 richest men in the world can afford to give since they have more than enough left for themselves. That's not generosity.

1. Bill Gates

Lifetime donations: $27 billion

Net worth: $84.2 billion

Generosity Index: 32%

According to this list Bill Gates comes out at position number 1 and that I don't understand since surely this man should top the list. His generosity index is far higher.

5. Charles Francis Feeney

Lifetime donations: $6.3 billion

Net worth: $1.5 million

Generosity Index: 420,000%
