We laugh, but for those folks is just play money

That money doesn't hurt them, its just free money and if its gone, great do it again. This is completely different level of wealth that most of us, are not in that world,. They can write checks because they can... and their mentality is they will continue to write a check into they get it right. Its a shame, they didnt have the same commitment for other charitable activities
