Personnel
gollark: You don't particularly need that. You can just buy a cheaper phone and give charity £400 or something.
gollark: People might actually look at you as weird if you donate a significant % of your income to effective charities, rather than just £10 a month to WarmFuzzyCharity2000 which helps endangered homeless tigers get food or something.
gollark: As far as I'm aware, you can actually still save lives for something like £500 each by donating money to help with malaria in Africa. But *nobody does this*!
gollark: Because it is! It mostly works fine!
gollark: People talk a lot about how terrible capitalism is, and then generally just... ignore the possibility of charity.
