The reasons for this are quite simple. When the richest 1% make a very grand gesture like this, there will always be an element of analysis about how they plan to do it, for better or worse.<p>When it&#x27;s somebody in the very top 1% who up until now has taken large measures to completely avoid and drastically minimise paying tax in numerous countries (which can have substantial benefits for the populace of said countries) at the levels they should be, questions will always be asked.<p>I also completely agree, he&#x27;s fully within his rights to blow the lot - this also has a benefit for society anyway (more people working to build him yachts, supercars, mix him martini&#x27;s, etc., therefore more collected in tax from said blowing of cash).<p>I don&#x27;t have a view at the moment on this either way - the proof will be in the pudding as they say and I will reserve judgement till then. I will, however, say he&#x27;s not actually given anything away - certainly not yet anyway.
