Yes, I am aware he is known as a philanthropist and that is exactly the image he wishes to project while still protecting his own wealth. It all comes down to sums, and having studied what it means to be of pure heart when it comes to approaching God, I know that he knows better. He fools everyone. Still, people will argue giving away anything makes one a saint. Religion doesn't work that way. He knows better.
