Ryan Reynolds Makes a Donation

Ryan Reynolds and his wife.... Mrs Ryan Reynolds donated $400,000 to four different hospitals in New York City. I'm not sure exactly where those donations are going as that isn't made entirely - or at all - clear, and I'm not the FBI so if you want to know, I'm pretty sure you have the internet maybe look for yourself.
'I think in times of crisis, we all know it's the celebrities that we count on most. They're the ones who are gonna help us get through this. 
'Right after healthcare workers, of course... first responders, people who work in essential services, pingpong players, mannequins, childhood imaginary friends, like 400 other types of people.
He concluded: 'Look, stay at home, practice social distancing, wash your hands. We are gonna get through this thing together.'
I know he thinks he's cute but good for him. On the other hand, he has a personal net worth estimated to be somewhere around $75 million dollars so let's be honest, he should be donating money to hospitals. Especially since every nickel of that is tax deductible, so some accountant somewhere told him, "Look you can give this $400k to a hospital, or to the government, what's it going to be. What will get you the most press." And voila.  It's probably not even enough money to pay for the annual maintenance on just one of his houses. And all just for doing nothing but showing girls his abs And even at just 3% interest on $75 million, that $400,000 will be recouped in a matter of months. . So how about we stop calling these people heroes.
