[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tip 15%.

While working in the service industry can be hard, I would rather reserve my charity for people in greater need, e.g. health projects in Africa, where one in five children will die before they are ten. Now that is really tough, and a dollar there goes a lot further than a $60 tip on a $300 meal.[/quote]

That's nice and all but my biggest complaint about a lot of Americans is that there is no sense of community. I was always taught that charity begins "in the home" so to speak and extends outward. If your neighbor is in need, you help him. If not, you move on to others in your neighborhood or city, so on and so forth. I guess it's just a different philosophy but I always felt a true sense of community this way. You're own success is very much tied to the success of your neighbors. It's also a LOT easier to hold local charities accountable for the donations you give.

I work in the non-profit sphere and you would be flabbergasted to know how much the CEOs of these international charities earn. With 10 years, those funds could alleviate hunger in an 10 African nation.
