things you have done lately for others

[Subotan]

I contributed to the national aggregate demand.

EDIT:

not true AT ALL.
donating to a charity is good if you dont have the time to personally do charity work. but to say its worthless to give charity?
how dare you.

Charities aren't infallible. A lot of the money you give to the bigger or more general "Help the Needy" or "Children in Need" etc. is wasted on admin. I make a specific point of not giving to big charities, and especially not to things like Red Nose Day etc. I won't be guilt-tripped into giving to a charity just because everyone else does. And I absolutely refuse to give to any sort of animal charity. Did you know that in the UK, the Donkey Sanctuary receives more money than Age Concern?
