Sadio Mane, a Senegalese soccer star that plays for British team Liverpool, and earns approximately 10.2 million dollars annually, has given the world a lesson in modesty after some fans spotted him carrying a cracked iPhone. His response is legendary:
"Why would I want ten Ferraris, 20 diamond watches and two jet planes? What would that do for the world? I starved, I worked in the fields, I played barefoot, and I didn't go to school. Now I can help people. I prefer to build schools and give poor people food or clothing. I have built schools [and] a stadium; we provide clothes, shoes, and food for people in extreme poverty. In addition, I give 70 euros per month to all people from a very poor Senegalese region in order to contribute to their family economy. I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips, and even planes. I prefer that my people receive a little of what life has given me," Mane said.

Awesome! Imagine if billionaires had this same mentality; they could eradicate world hunger/poverty.

A beautiful amazing man. Giving not taking. This is humanity at it's best. He is giving back his community. He is a man of pure intent. Not like the fluffy orange one in WH. Can trump even be called a man? Thank you.

Meanwhile your president sets up a bogus charity from which he withdrew money for his own benefit including buying a portrait of himself. He’s since been barred from running charities. See the difference? Oh, and this so called president who is corrupt to the core still stands a good chance
