Question

If there is really such person, give an example

Answer 1

The rich can take tax deductions for their contributions to charity. Building owners can receive government funding for allowing low-income dwellings within their properties. A business that does not make a profit can be used as a tax write off.

This does not mean that certain causes do not seriously affect the rich - and that they are not seriously concerned with the people, animals or whatever they give money to.

Answer 2

But, a lot of "selfless" people get plenty of self importance, pride, and respect when they give, so it's tough to call their actions purely selfless.

Answer 3

I don't think so. When some people donate to charities they can have tax rebates for their contributions to charity. From here, we can see that the main purpose is to have tax rebate. The reabte also depends on the amount that have been donated to the charity

Answer 4

There are generous acts and selfish acts.I dont know if you can call a person generous or selfish.Every body is generous or selfish at times.

Answer 5

generosity means thinking about other people and forfeiting one's own sakes. so they are not selfish to themselves. by contrast, they feel happy, sure!
there's a lot of such.
