Why doesn't Eilish give away all her millions?..

Billie Eilish's net worth is estimated to be around $50 million to $54 million as of late 2025... She is just like Bernie Sanders. Call out the people richer than themselves, but they will never give their money away.

She literally gave away 25% of her net worth Maher is a clown

Let me know when this number is reduced to $0

Giving money away is stupid. If a millionaire or billionaire wants to do something good, create an organization that gets people off drugs, teach people skills to gain and retain employment, to manage money, or life skills. Throwing money at problems doesn’t solve problems.

It’s such a childs’ view of wealth. This is net worth , it’s not like there’s a bank w/ billions of dollars sitting there to be withdrawn. The $ is in assets.

Millionaires lecturing billionaires about greed is peak Hollywood irony. They all preach generosity until the money’s theirs then suddenly it’s “complicated.” Performative morality doesn’t cost much when you’re cashing millions.

Collectively, the American taxpayer has given trillions of dollars away. It has neither improved the lives of those that gave the dollars, nor the lives of those that received the dollars That’s called socialism. And we’ve proven it doesn’t work for decades

Somehow I think if she were a billionaire that logic wouldn't apply to her.

Kaizen explains to Billy Eilish about Mark Zuckerberg, Billionaire.

People dont realize how low 50million is for an A LIST CELEBRITY. Its low because shes constantly redistributing her wealth which i think everybody should do. Billionaires dont do that and thats how they became billionaires. Alot of people rly dont know how much a billion is.

Let's start with her millions, she can go first & set an example. Stupid little snot.

so tax them, got it

A billionaire earned that s**t / hustled . Don’t be mad because your food stamps are paused for a moment. 😢 I am No billionaire, yet I am Not hating on the one’s that are. How about career politicians that went in with Little and are filthy rich Today ??

These people are fundamentally unserious he’s worth nearly $150 million and he’s talking about the “billionaires”

She donated over 11 million that same day. The inner connectedness Billie was raised in is a concept many billionaires will never know. She’s richer because of it.

Wow. Things sure have changed. We are dissing the idea of, imagining what a world we would have if billionaires helped hundredaires be thousandaires. You know? help the bottom end. Guess too much is never enough now. Weird...🫤

This is not the issue at all. It is actually hard to productively ‚give away money‘ as a billionaire without loosing control of your companies and making the world worse

This is the stupidest argument ever made in defense of something lol

This is a shit response. Lol ohh blunt as in he smoked a blunt and thought this was good?

Do most billionaires already give to charity? These claims assume that they do not.

Another disingenuous strawman from a disingenuous former thought provoker. If no one “wants” to stop at $995 million… then maybe we should make them if we acknowledge that their fortunes are bad for civilization.

She did. She gave 11 million dollars and she worth 50

She has no idea how much many billionaires already give away. 🙄 What does she give to charity?

It’s actually quite simple to become a millionaire: • Incorporate a company • Issue 1M shares with a par value of $0.0001 • Sell 1-share for $2 to a colleague • Company is now valued at ~$2M This is exactly why wealth is a relatively complex construct that few understand

Taylor Swift is a billionaire and is very generous. MacKenzie Scott is another billionaire, she's donation billions of dollars.

Meanwhile, maybe Professor @billieeilish can tell us how government taking taxpayer monies and redistributing to drive dependency is a positive. How much wealth should dear Billie have? The answer is always "not more than me."

There’s a kernel of truth in there that makes modern capitalists a little nervous.

You notice bill never defends regular People?

Her basic tickets cost $150. Why isn’t she giving away the entire upper deck to her shows? 🤷♂️

Billionaires are not sitting on a billion dollars in cash. The total assets of the companies they own and run are valued as such. Millionaire entertainers wealth is a lot more disposable, they don’t have to reinvest profits to stay competitive in business

@dragisa20199 @Josh_Conder

@godisk1ngg What suddenly happened to her?
