Jeffrey Lurie is donating $50 million to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Penn Medicine to boost research into autism's impact across the lifespan.
Not me, but I know his net worth is about $5 billion.
This is the equivalent of the median American donating $350. (Going by a net disposable household income of $62,300, divided by 1.8, because some have both parents working, some don’t).
You’re comparing someone’s net worth to someone else’s disposable income, which isn’t a fair comparison. What you are saying still holds true mostly but it’s best to compare apples to apples.
Median net worth is closer to $200k. So just multiplying by 3, that’s closer to $1000. But median net worth for that age range is over 400k, so maybe like $2500.
Does anybody outside of Philly know who this is lol?
I say that as a Philly guy and Jeff Lurie fan
