Dear rich people. We have to talk.
If your gross income is under $100k a year skip this thread. If it's $100k or over (INCLUDING MONEY FROM FAMILY), even if you don't think so, you're rich.

Even if you think you can barely make ends meet or "can't afford to" give money to the poor, you're wrong. People in your city make do with less than half of what you have and they are likely more generous than you are.
Not to be too moralistic on you all, but if you are hoarding money or spending money it on luxuries, you are part of the problem. Even if you hate Tr*mp and love @AOC and think gentrification is awful, you are part of the problem. WE are part of the problem.
I know you think you need savings for a rainy day, and in a capitalist system, you do. That said, you owe it to your fellow humans to help. Join me in donating a large portion of your income, 10%, 20%, even 50% or 70% to charity.
Don't just donate to 501c(3)s. Follow #TransCrowdFund and pick several people and give some money to each.
Give $20/$50/$100 to every homeless person you see. Give to children abroad and to adults in your local area.

If you like me think that people as rich as we are do not deserve to exist, do your part and help. Together we can redistribute the wealth one rich person at a time.
Don't think of it as charity, think of it as Guillotine Insurance.
