Why are some pp so selfish when they has the cash to help others/make the world a better place?

Question

there are people out there without homes around the world, poor, etc. and also people out there who has more than they needed and didn't even give much to charity? why is that?

Answer 1

because they worked hard for their money and want it to themselves. they want to have nice things

Answer 2

I ask myself that same question constantly. I truly think that people don't bother with things unless they affect them directly. Celebrities are not in direct contact with people with such great disadvantages therefore they don't consider it a priority. Some even believe that regardless of how much money they give out to charity in order to help out these people that their contributions won't eventually solve the big picture of poverty which extends to Africa or even here in the United States.  

Answer 3

When I see a true need for help, I try to help. However, so many times those who say they need help are just too lazy to try to help themselves. If I help them, they will always expect a handout and never learn to stand on their own two feet.
