Pritzker, an heir to the Hyatt hotel chain, has a net worth of $3.9 billion, tied for No. 382 on the Forbes 400 list of the nation’s richest people. A campaign spokesperson said via email that Pritzker planned to donate the money to charity but did not respond when asked why he hadn’t already done so.
This was disclosed from his taxes.
If he meant to donate it like he said, there’s no plausible reason it wasn’t done during the same tax year to minizme taxes…
You don’t get on Forbes #400 richest individuals in America by not having a team of accountants to notice basic shit like that.
Besides the fact that if he honestly cared about charitable donations, he’d never have amassed 3.9 billion in wealth. 1.4M isn’t even a rounding error in his networth, he probably didn’t give it a second thought or realize it’s a life changing amount of money for 99.999% of his constituents.
