I give near zero. I was dirt poor growing up, four kids, dead dad, broken heat, broken car, zero on bank and no charity gave us a penny. All a scam.
What dud help was SS widow with minor benefits, financial aid college.
I rather pay taxes and let it trickle down then help CEO of United Way get a new Jet

We are saving for private college for kids and are late 40s. We will likely only start giving significantly once we retire and the kids are launched. We have helped family overseas as needed financially and one of us has a significant medical condition and would likely be able to work for only 3-5 years.
You don’t have nearly enough for private college and retirement in 3-5 years!

HHI of 300k but only 700k NW? What happened?
Why do you assume they’ve been making that 300k for a long period of time? If they’ve only been at that level for a few years it’s not unusual

Single/31 years old and I don’t see the point of giving when I can enjoy the money on my own or spend on my future wife/children. I’m not religious and I feel no moral imperative to give anything when I’m just a w2 employee trying to make it in an expensive area where I struggle to even afford a SFH. I don’t come from a wealthy family. Even losing $1000 is painful for me. I have a wedding coming up (no parental help) and I will be the sole breadwinner for a while until my wife finishes school, need to buy a car for my wife, have tens of thousands in urgent home repairs that need doing, am getting nickel and dimed by inflation, etc…. I am so done with spending or giving money unnecessarily
