I have never heard about the Morses supporting a charity, and am really curious if they do so. We hear so much about the 4 jets he owns, the multi million dollar yacht, his ownership of the Villages banks, local newspaper, a television channel and an AM radio station. His realty company controls 60 percent of the re-sale market in the Villages. He even owns the utility company. And before someone jumps in and says he deserves it all, he's such a wonderful businessman, don't bother. I agree - he knows his financial P's and Q's. That's not what this post is about. But why do we hear nothing about charitable contributions? The guy is supposedly worth $2.5 billion. If we Google other billionaires we see plenty of charity donations - look at Gates, Buffet. Bloomberg, Ted Turner, and others. But I can't come up with a single charitable donation from the Morses.
THAT IS BETWEEN HIM AND GOD......... WE ALL HAVE TO ANSWER FOR OUR DEEDS ON EARTH SOMEDAY...... HIS MONEY, HE CAN DO WITH AS HE FEELS FIT. IT SHOULD NOT CONCERN US. SOME PEOPLE JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO RETIRE, AND STOP BEING CONCERNED ABOUT OTHER PEOPLES MONEY. ............. ITS CALLED BEING NOSEY..........
