You are wrong. 50% of profit of a group of companies growing since the 60s and going eternally forward is more useful than any lump sum however large to be fritter away. Think about it, if buffet gives away 50% of his company (he would first have to buy back all the outstanding shares) annual profit for 50 years, do you suppose that is a larger sum than his current fortune size? Why are you so wrong? Re stats, you are of course wrong, because in Asia folks want to keep their charity giving secret, not as would loud mouth sort would predictably do. My wager is that hog is #1 given it's wealth level and vcv legacy.
