The billionaire often criticizes the Salvation
Army because if he donates money (which he
will NEVER do) the donation will not be in "his/her name" and the Salvation Army
will get the "credit" for his donation.

may try to make it seem like donating to the Salvation Army is a scam and they keep the money for themselves.
