So at least some of that greed does some good somewhere...

Great! They are doing the right thing. Good for them.
But I'm talking about the people who probably make more per day than the individual fortunes of each of those you mention.
(BTW, according to its own website, the turn 2 Foundation has spent $45M since 1996. That's $1.3M/year. Impressive! What percentage of Derek's yearly income do you suppose that is? Better than nothing, and a lot better than may, many wealthy people. But I'm just not that impressed. And I don't think, say, Michael Jordon is, either.)
