Jay-Z is worth $420 million dollars according to Forbes. No doubt he’s worked hard for it. The question is, when you’re that wealthy do you have an obligation to give back to those less fortunate? Or at the very least break off a chunk of cash for your own charity?
Those are questions Jay-Z is probably thinking about today after The Daily published a report claiming the superstar rapper made $63 million dollars in 2010, but only gave $6,431 to his own charity. The Daily came up with those numbers by examining tax records for the Shawn Carter Scholarship Fund.
Hov’s wife, Beyonce, reportedly made $87 million dollars that same year, but did not donate any money at all to the Foundation.
