On reason he is rich is that he is far from stupid. Wouldn't be surprised if the main competitors for these types of charity deals don't agree in advance to take turns getting the various offerings. Still a lot of fun, does a lot of good for the charities involved AND there is always the chance of some rogue billionaire altering everyone else's plans. What is there not to like?

The charity thing is great but they don't need to be excessive with the reality of it all.

If Rick would give over a million to any charity he might as well get something for it. I really only concern myself to my own income. I can not wish I had more but I am glad I do not have less. Save the wave
