Fortune Over Fame, Every Time

Do you crave acknowledgement for your good deeds? B. Wayne Hughes doesn't. Who's that? Precisely. He's a billionaire, and he's been giving a ton of money to USC and for pediatric cancer research... and he's done it anonymously, so much so that it took investigation by the L.A. Times to figure out who gave USC all that money. I suppose that some people would contend that donations to a school should be transparent so you know if someone's trying to influence the curriculum, but this guy seems motivated by a desire to do good and a philosophy that the only person who needs to know about your good deeds is yourself.
