somebody makes $30K [a year] ... willing to give about $30 month to charity. Is that low or high? I'd say it's probably ok, most people can't afford to give much anyway, with mortages, student loans, children, etc. Only the wealthy could give thousands and still pay the phone bill.
Huh? This can't possibly be right. People could choose a cheaper mortgage, fewer children, etc. In a world with a median income of ~$3000, someone who makes ten times that much surely can choose to spend thousands on charity if they want to.
