Jack Benny in real life was a nice person who was generous of his time amd money. Contrary to his screen personna. He had a lot of friends. One was Harry S. Truman. He also raised a lot of money by doing benefits.
One of his best jokes was:
A robber accosted him on the street and said, "your money or your life".
After the robber waited for a while to get his response, Jack, said:
"Wait, I'm thinking".
