Multibillionaire Heiress Gives Away 90% of Wealth After Money Made Her ‘Annoyed’, Netizens Gasp in Shock

• Austrian heiress Marlene Engelhorn felt she was not entitled to the riches she inherited as she herself did not work for the money
• Choosing to part with 90% of her wealth, Engelhorn has given it to organisations that are helping promote economic equality
• Engelhorn’s selfless act had many Mzansi citizens in shock but also admiring her truly inspiring generosity

30-year-old Austrian heiress Marlene Engelhorn parted with 90% of her wealth after realising that money did not bring as much happiness as many believe it does.

While most people would do anything for even one percent of her riches, the wealthy woman yearned for more than money had given her.

IOL reported that Engelhorn does not believe mega wealth is a form of equality, something she stands strongly for. So, by donating a large sum of her inheritance to organisations which strive for equality, the heiress believes this is her way of levelling the playing field.

“I was born into a rich family and will one day inherit a fortune for which I never had to work. Millionaires should not decide whether or not they contribute in a just way to the societies they live in, without which they never would have become millionaires,” she said in a video by Millionaires For Humanity, an organisation that advocates for the need to tax the super wealthy.

Engelhorn knows that if she were not born into the wealth that she was, she would just be an average person like everyone else. Having not had to work for what she has, the woman feels she is not exactly entitled to this money.

The publication posted the story on Facebook, and it had a lot of Mzansi people tripping. Take a look at some of the comments:

Vincent Zimuto said:

“Easy. She didn't work for it. She didn't earn it. She shall regret it.”

Emmanuel Maravanyika said:

“Her heart is in the right place, but her thinking is flawed. With all the taxes collected by governments, few of those make their way to the poor. So yes, tax the wealthy 1%, but there's no guarantee, as with all other taxes, that the tax will go to the poor to alleviate their plight.”

John van Niekerk said:

“Philanthropy is as old as societies. Keep it going, as she's seen fit to do.”

Nomfundo Mpondo said:

“Connect her with our organization that is establishing self-reliant communities. Her wealth will live forever and will remain in the lives of these communities and families.”

Keegan Wentzel said:

“Put me at the top of her list of recipients.”
