A look at giving

I have been absent for a while. Spending way too much time on facebook I have to admit.

I read this article this morning and I wanted to spread it. It compares the giving / charitible habits of people of various income levels and how they are affected by tough economic times. The results might be surprising.

An interesting chart. I have two conflicting thoughts on this. One is that 2% of 70K is about 3 times more money than 4.3% of 10K so be happy about it. The other thought is that people that make 70k should be more charitable than 2%.

Also, I would like to see a third part to this graph adding religious beliefs...I think it would be interesting.
