Sadio Mane, The Liverpool Star from Senegal (earning approximately 10.2 million dollars annually),has given the world a lesson in modesty after some fans spotted him carrying a cracked Iphone.His response is legendary:
"Why would I want ten Ferraris, 20 diamond watches and two jet planes? What would that do for the world? I starved, I worked in the fields, I played barefoot, and I didn't go to school. Now I can help people. I prefer to build schools and give poor people food or clothing. I have built schools [and] a stadium; we provide clothes, shoes, and food for people in extreme poverty. In addition, I give 70 euros per month to all people from a very poor Senegalese region in order to contribute to their family economy. I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips, and even planes. I prefer that my people receive a little of what life has given me," Mane said.@MarkHoltom The people who need to grasp this lesson are incapable of being shamed.

@IndyRichard they will.
it is logical and far superior for anybody with that kind of money to do things like Mane is doing than to not do so and thereby give 8 billion people 20 stupid reasons to kidnap their family members.
@falcennial
people like Musk seem not to care a lot about their family members being kidnapped…and: super rich people exist for too long already, if they would want to go that direction, they were there already

@cockneylaurie You have already explained what is happening here. Your iPhone-using acquaintances (perhaps because they have more disposable income) buy iPhones new. After a couple of years, they sell them to people who use them another couple of years. What did you think ”second hand” means?
But many people also buy new and use them for many years.
(And software updates are necessary in today’s world because of security issues)
@ahltorp
"(And software updates are necessary in today’s world because of security issues)" No as i said Security Updates which generally are provided for longer are necessary.Updates for "new features" generally just bloat the phone and slow it down, so as to give you more wallpapers or some such. (Actually on Android many apps never require anything but the version before two that your phone comes with.
"What did you think ”second hand” means?" Really implied insults - Blocked

But the evidence is blowing in our face that it only leads to soul crushing alienation, anger, desperate addictions and destruction of our one and only habitat.
We really need to reboot. There is wisdom in older societies, but we also need to invent new ways.

Cultural attitudes. Many cultures valorize those that bring prosperity and well-being to the entire community. What the community values are those people who use their talents and skills to make all better off.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @nuwagaba2
Well neoliberal capitalism and consumerism as we have in the current western world definitely does not...
-
@xs4me2
What stops other people from becoming like him?Current western society with its neoliberal capitalism and consumerism and its habits does...
-
@nuwagaba2 I'm not convinced that lack of morals is the issue.
I think it's a complicated issue that I'm far from understanding fully.
I think 99% have good morals and only want the best for others. We also have in some countries systems in place to ensure a living standard for everyone (which is getting reduced, while the rich ones get richer). In our capitalist system also other things get into the focus and our standards and demands grow and grow
@fh0
Can we change tge system amd make it to the one where everyone benefits? -
Current western society with its neoliberal capitalism and consumerism and its habits does...
@xs4me2
What can we do to create a society where all people don't have to face the challenges of poverty, poor health and standards of living as well as free from hunger? -

But this story is really old It was before 2020 I guess. But still that's a kind heart right there

Of course you could do as most of the US billionaires do and build rockets or try and undermine democracy with buying up media and AI tech and get it supporting Far Right policies and nutters.
@cockneylaurie @MarcusMASTO @MarkHoltom Your comment is pitifully obvious and unfunny. BLOCK!

@fh0
Can we change tge system amd make it to the one where everyone benefits?@nuwagaba2 the world is getting more authoritarian and more and more people vote for the far right, a lot of people or the majority seem to prefer to change it for the worse.
I hope the outlook is better where you are living
