They maybe stupid, I do know of one very wealthy person
who would make them look poor ! Her name was Brooke Astor,
she was married to Astor ( His father went down with the Titanic)
When Astor died he left Brooke Astor 1/2 Billion Dollars, Brooke
didn't come from wealth, she was middle class. She decided that
throughout her lifetime she would distribute her wealth to as many
causes in NYC as she could, she even paid for a Christmas parties at
Metropolitan Museum Of Art where I used to work in NYC. She was a
great lady who gave NYC hundreds of Millions of dollars. When she got
older her son from a first marriage ( Not a Astor) stole from her and if
it wasn't for her grandson reportng it to the authorities no one would
have known, he was put on trial and taken off as her executor. When
she died at 105 she had 200 million left it all went to charity....
Cheers..Joe...
