This seems plausible, so I searched and found this on the Wikipedia:
Various studies have examined who gives more to charity. A study in the United States found that as income decreases, charitable giving increases as a percentage of income. For instance, the poorest fifth of Americans donated 4.3% of their income, while the wealthiest fifth donated 2.1%. In absolute terms, this translated to an average donation of $453 from an average income of $10,531, compared to $3,326 from an income of $158,388.
Ya, and I can only speak for myself, but I don’t have a lot to give to charity so when I do it sure as heck isn’t random. There’s far too many scammy charities out there for that, I don’t donate anything without at least a little researching first.
Those people who were “too full of themselves” might have their own problems, and they might also donate in other places unseen by you.
Poor people give away a much higher percentage of their wealth than rich people.
