Lots of articles about MacKenzie Scott’s giving away of 26 billion dollars out there, including this one.
This line though, just sit on this for a second.
When Scott started detailing her giving in 2020, her fortune was valued around $36 billion, according to Forbes. It's fluctuated over the years, but today, Forbes estimates her net worth to be $33 billion, even as she's given away more than $26 billion.
She is amazing.
I love her.
This is why any worry about taxing the rich is absurd.
In case you aren’t following, she gave away 26 billion but has only lost 3 billion because she made 23 billion with her money.
It’s almost like she has so much money, she literally can’t give it away fast enough (with any kind of oversight.)
And we give this kind of wealth more tax breaks.
