I'm not saying I'd do it for anyone just that's it's different than donating your money to random starving people.

I don't think it's as different as we immediately think.

I think it clearly is - immediacy matters! We're all going to die, so why accumulate money in the first place?

Oh, right, because I expect to need it today, etc, LDO.

If I'm going to read in the paper that my old buddy from college will be dead tomorrow because I didn't help him, well, I can't handle that and I can make more $$$ anyway. I'll gladly pay off the 'nappers if I get a guarantee.

There aren't people in the world who are in need of immediate basic medical care?
