&gt;What else could this guy possibly do to demonstrate that he is genuinely not interested in material wealth?<p>Let me start with the caveat that I don&#x27;t really care if Zuck is &quot;interested in material wealth&quot; or not. That said, if he wants to prove it, he needs to give it all away in a way where he doesn&#x27;t have control over what happens to it anymore.<p>Putting your money in a &quot;charitable foundation&quot; that you control is not giving it away; you still decide how, where, and in what quantities it gets spent. You can still give people you like a salary as &quot;employees of the charity&quot;. None of that counts as giving it away.<p>Giving it away is actually giving it to others in one fell swoop and letting those people decide what happens to it.<p>If he really wanted to be egaliatarian and de-elevate himself to the level of a &quot;normal guy&quot;, he&#x27;d just divide his shares by the number of Facebook employees and evenly disperse. In my book, &quot;I moved all my money into a different entity which I still control&quot; is not giving all your money away, it&#x27;s just paper pushing.
