I'd like to think more high earners might be inspired by this beautiful gesture.
Very, very impressed with David for doing this. Classy man.

Gospel of Matthew...Jesus speaking
6:1 “Be careful not to display your righteousness merely to be seen by people. Otherwise you have no reward with your Father in heaven.
6:2 Thus whenever you do charitable giving, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in synagogues and on streets so that people will praise them. I tell you the truth, they have their reward.
6:3 But when you do your giving, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
6:4 So that your gift may be in secret and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you."
That's his Sainthood scuppered then
