    A few things:

    1. I have no idea how much retirement would cost (with buffer for needing care in advanced age since we have no children), so I pulled a number out of my ass with a lot of buffer
    2. If invested and it grows, that’s just more I can give away later. Again with the childless thing, anything we had left would go to charitable causes
    3. 50 mil is 5% of a billion dollars so ~95% of what I got would be moved to decent causes from the get-go
    4. Perfect is the enemy of good and I never claimed to have some moral highground to begin with. Doing (at least in my opinion) good things with 95% of the money given to me certainly is better than 0% of it.
