Not sure about Gates in particular, but if you donate to your own charity, then funnel it back, you’re not out of the complete 100B. You also get good PR out of it.
That charity doesn’t pay him a salary, the worst you could say it does is pay for hotels/airfare/food (that I am not even sure if the gates foundation does for him) but even if it did it would be a fraction of the money like when I say a fraction I mean less than 0.0001% so like paying a tax rate of 99.9999%. You keep talking about PR but what is the PR for? Because again you could get much better PR for an absolute fraction of the price.
Like for the same reason no billionaires should exist because a billion dollars is unfathomable a billion dollars could pay for so much stuff that funneling it through a legit charity is just not worth it.
I have personally got a grant approved by the gates foundation to help fund clean water in El Salvador which is why I am taking this somewhat personally. Like you can talk shit about bill gates but there is no way that he is just as bad as other billionaires like musk
