They do it every day. Despite efforts to demonize rich people, philanthropy runs rampant in this Country.

The best thing they can do is to make sure that the money they make is being made fairly and that the companies/banks/governments that they own are treating human beings as valuable parts of the world, rather than as 'employees' or 'liabilities' or 'assets' to be bought and sold like disposable plastic tampon applicators.
Mostly, rich people can help by not trying to accumulate wealth in central points that should be left circulating in local communities, which is where that wealth came from to start with, either from mining, farming, or value-creating activities of people improving their world.

They often do. Without rich people charities would dry up, many rich people donate money or equipment but without enough money to live they couldn't have the time to donate as volunteers. Score is retired executives who donate time to help others and charity boards all over are staffed with volunteers.
If you really want to help people become rich so you will have the time and money to do the most good.

I'm not rich rich but very well off. Giving is a big part of my life. Finding reputable charities that can be challenging. I don't brag. I don't give cash handouts. I look for ways to give people a hand up who fell on tough times not a handout.

Yes, and they usually do. But they don't necessarily help with a CASH HANDOUT. They've learned, that throwing money at a poor money manager doesn't help the situation, and doesn't help them CHANGE anything. Helping is usually about teaching, and funding charities.
They've also learned, that when you give, you get. Call it karma or whatever, it works.
