Tactical Philanthropy Philanthropedia Concerning Cake, Bilbo Baggins, and Charity So a couple days ago I did an AMA on Reddit. It was fun. I enjoy goofing off, interacting with my readers, and answering questions. The day after the AMA, I went back in to see if I’d missed any particularly important/interesting/clever questions. And I found one. I started to answer it. So rather than post my answer there, buried deep in a thread at the bottom of a dead AMA. This is going to sound pretty awful, but why all the charity work? I’ve always been… well, financially challenged (at young Kvothe-like levels at times), and from what I’ve read, you were in a similar state for a long time. Well, it kind of bugs me. This sounds intensely selfish, I know, but it comes from ignorance, not malice. Thanks for being honest here Jason. The simple truth is, Jason, at this point in my life, I have enough money to live comfortably. It’s like this: if you have one piece of cake, and you eat it, that’s fine. If you have two pieces of cake, you should probably share some with a friend. (No lie.)
