There was a front page article on Worth Magazine about the 25 most generous young Americans, and it profiled all these 30-something billionaires handing out money to their private foundations. It made me sick. They are not generous; they are simply disposing of money that they can't possibly use on themselves.

Jesus didn't preach poverty, but he showed that the Widow who put her last mite into the pot for others was more generous than all these billionaires put together.

I thought Worth was an investment magazine. It's not. It's a slick vehicle for narcissists to look at advertisements for their next Rolex Oyster and see how their competition in conspicuous consumption is doing. My subscription will run out.
