Rich people are generally the cheapest bastards 🙄

> Huda Kattan of Huda Beauty donated $10K

I vaguely - I mean VAGUELY - pay attention to Beauty people but everything I have heard about her has been fairly positive.

Also seeing people making 15$/hr going "well it's not KYLIE'S job to pay MEDICAL BILLS' ok no it isn't, sure, and if the man wasn't injured on her watch, or working for her, again, sure. But the gall to ask people who make infinitely less to donate when you can snap your finger and solve the problem...ugh.

These celebs could have easily gotten together told the family they would cover the expense and called it good. Plus if this is a traumatic brain injury the Neurosurgeons costs alone could equal upwards of 60k hospitals bill would be upwards of a million plus. I don't understand why these celebs don't cover it and I'm sure then just find a way to write it off on their taxes.

This.
I don't believe in expecting the rich to solve all the problems via charity.
That's what taxes are for.
I do believe if they're going to be charitable, they can do a helluva lot better than the shit we're seeing here. Between the industry contacts and the rich bitches he work on, this should have been covered, in private, with lots of money left over for his rehab and downtime.

Yup. When I was younger, I always thought celebrities were so generous when they donated to charities and formed charitable foundations. Then I got older and learned about the tax benefits of having foundations and donating and I was like ohhhhhh, it all makes sense now.
