Top TED Talks About Philanthropy by Peter Palivos | Mar 1, 2021 | charity, Peter Palivos Attorney, Philanthropy
It’s predicted that tens of trillions of dollars will change hands over the next twenty years. But, unlike in the past, this wealth transfer won’t happen through typical commerce. This marks an important opportunity for philanthropy. Baby boomers, people who were born between 1946 and 1964, are transferring this wealth through the wills they leave behind. Some may choose to donate to charities directly. And adult children set to receive this inheritance may also choose philanthropy. Given this opportunity, many people are asking themselves new questions. How can they best spend this money? What type of philanthropy is most meaningful and useful? Many philanthropists and researchers have asked these same questions recently. And, their innovative and transformative ndings are now available in TED Talk videos. Below you’ll nd a summary of the top three TED Talks on Philanthropy in the last ten years, ranked by most views. Dan Pallotta: The way we think about charity is dead wrong
