mastana Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 Mukesh Ambani's wife Neeta she is doing lot of good work..Do we really need outsiders to tell us about giving?? Giving our a** has been part of our culture and its big tradition. :musicman:
Clarke Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 This is call of charity highlights the failings of government to provide the fundamental rights to food' date= shelter and education. Really ? I'd call that another myth. The citizens who can't afford a month's supply of food produce 4 kids and the govt is supposed to provide food, shelter & education by printing money ?
Desi Cartman Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 I have seen Indians donate gold crowns to temples and refuse to give 5 bucks in charity. I'm not saying that everybody should donate, just saying that Indians prefer to bribe gods than to help the needy
Tiger80 Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 ^ Perfect! In addition' date=' there's a misconception about charity which a lot equate to donating "money". IMO, the best charity is the one which empowers the other person for life and not temporarily. Also, there's no need to be out in the open doing charity. I am absolutely sure that folks like Tendulkar will have charities and will do so quietly rather than creating "awareness".[/quote'] :agree: Our Indian bowlers empowers the life of so many batsmen permanently.The most charitable people of the world

bulbul Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 People love to preach morals when there are no financial implications to their bank balances. E.g. cricketers should play for pride and not for money in IPL' date=' billionaires should donate their money to charity. Its great if rich people donate money for social causes like Buffett and Premji are doing, but they arent really bound to do so.[/quote'] no one is asking to them donate money which may they need to survive , they are asking just donate the exessive amount of money rather than just keeping it idle.. just beacuse they are not bound doesnt mean people cant question them... majority of the busenessman made their money twisting rules,in expense of others so it s not like saying part wiht hard earned , loyal money...nothing wrong in empowering others who knows it may beneift them only

CSK Fan Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 money is never enough is hard to agree with- excep for certain medical condition reason if somebody feels billions is not enuff then its greed, power-hunger or show off at that point Completely agree with preaching before practice (not donating basd on your respective capability) or spending obscene amount on unnneccessary things whether middle class or rich. no one is asking to them donate money which may they need to survive , they are asking just donate the exessive amount of money rather than just keeping it idle.. just beacuse they are not bound doesnt mean people cant question them... majority of the busenessman made their money twisting rules,in expense of others so it s not like saying part wiht hard earned , loyal money...nothing wrong in empowering others who knows it may beneift them only What is excess money? Once you are rich enough, some thing which are excess for you become necissity. For examples private jets and helicopters. A billionaire businessman would need to be on the move all the time as even slight delays would cause millions in lost. Now consider the cost of keeping pilots on payroll, maintainence crews, jet fuel. Just to maintain their lifestyle they have to spend millions. Of ourse they can avoid the luxury vacations but where else can they have privacy and safety? As I said, its very easy to preach, money is never enough. At what point are you super rich? When you have a billion? What about 100 million? There is a reason why even a billionare when he loses a few million might lose it all in a downward spiral. Plus a few people giving in charity is not going to change much at grassroot level

I'm not saying that everybody should donate' date= just saying that Indians prefer to bribe gods than to help the needy Indeed. I have never understood this concept of "charity" where people donate so much money/jewels etc to temples while there are hundreds of poor people who can benefit from that money.

Plus a few people giving in charity is not going to change much at grassroot level for super rich people the money spent on buying/maintaining private jets is just about short change - they buy a jet for somewhere between 20-60 million and then spend maybe a million (at most) for maintenance every year and this is out of the billions and billions of $$$ they have - so actually this is not too much for them.

Yea, I'm sure they told you that. Money only solves problem to a certain limit, if you have a never ending list of crap to buy just for the sake of it, you got bigger problems. Case in point, the dickhead who owns this:
