well good for you and your opinion but I believe rich people should help more. idc how they got it, how hard they worked... when people buy 2, 3, 4 cars when someone poor can't even afford one to get themselves to a job... it's ********.

If I could ever afford another car, I'd just buy it for someone else who needs it.

Who is that?

Dead @ Elephant. I guess gerl.

Some people talking like they want Beyoncé to spend the rest of her life in a third world country breast feeding the sickly. That isn't the career she chose. She chose to be a musician and helps a lot of people doing just that.

That's only a small portion of the many people whose lives are changed by Beyoncé. Then there are the dozens of charities she donates to, including half a million this year to just one charity. She could choose to not acknowledge those whose death wishes are to meet her, and she could choose to not give any money to charity, because she earned it through years of hard work and dedication, but she doesn't. What more do y'all want her to do?

Until this woman is wealthy and knows the responsibility that comes with being wealthy, she shouldn't insult those who actually contribute. You can't just give, give give, because people will then take advantage of you. Yes, Beyoncé and Jay-Z brag sometimes, but that isn't a bad thing, and it actually empowers many to do better for themselves.

It doesn't work like that though. What happens when that person decides they want a better car and come running to you because you have the money? Will you just keep giving them new cars? And then what happens when the whole town heard you gave away a car and come harassing you for one? Your money will run out at some point. When a person is as wealthy and as high-profile as Beyoncé, there needs to be boundaries. If she starts just giving things away, people will take advantage of her, and then if she stops, they will say she is cruel and tear her down. There are plenty of examples of wealthy people who gave too much away and ended up broke as they could ever be.

1) I'd give it to someone who truly NEEDS it... aka someone who I thought would cherish the gift and not take it for granted.
2) If they did want another car, I would say no. It is that simple.
3) If a bunch of people find out and want a new car, I will either say no or find a way to help them another way.
4) That's exactly my point. If I was as rich as Beyonce, I would live as close to modest as I could because if there came a time that I lost it all, I would like to be able to be happy and content with what I had left and who I helped.

That's where your opinion troubles me... you put way too much importance on wealth, money and power. If you lost it all, what are you now? who are you? Can you manage? If there's anything in this world that's superficial, artificial, whatever... I will always make sure I can do without it because in the end all you have is your soul. I would love to be as rich as her so I could help people and provide for myself and my family to live nicely and comfortably, but I would never depend on it or take it for granted.

If these two lost all their power and money, can you really tell me you think they'd be ok? I highly doubt it.

She clearly needs to do her research, before spewing ignorance and lies.

Why do new artists who have no kind of platform think they can get away with shading established stars? Have they learned nothing from Azealia?

I’m never going to be that person that buys a big car and a big house in Hollywood.

And there’s so many people in power in the pop world that have forgotten about all that. I look at these people like Jay Z and Beyonce, and I’m ashamed.

Uneducated. Beyoncé and Jay-Z don't even live in Hollywood and Beyoncé has helped more people than she can fathom. Even Jay has given back more than she'll ever will.

I despise up and coming artists who name drop famous celebrities to get more press.

4. She has chemistry with older men. “Older, successful men, but not at all in a sexual way, very much in an uncle-y way,” she clarifies. “I’ve always been curious about it — how much of a psychopath did you need to be to get here? I have a really nice, easygoing process with the top-notch guys, with this project and when I was doing restaurant work before. It’s not an ass-licking thing, it’s also respect. I feel like I have something to learn from them. And obviously, I really like older successful women also.

“I think some people get spiritually killed within this industry, but I’m actually really interested in it,” she continues. “I want to be a part of it later, if I’m not super tired with this ****. If not, I’ll probably be a manager or a record label owner or something myself in the future. I think I always have something to learn, and I always have to learn from people.”

Lol, obviously too stupid to realize what he's really doing.
Kesha could give a few hints.

And

at all these people in here knocking Beyonce and Jay-Z's charity. Just because they don't flaunt it in the public doesn't mean they aren't generous.

Elliphant sis. Of all the people to come for why Beyonce?

Just being rich doesn't mean you have to devote ALL your resources to the needy. She worked for her coins and has been more than charitable. I hate entitled bitches.

Beyonce was really the first singer to give cocky records and she's been doing them for years. Now everyone else is doing them, singer wise. I can't think of any singer/pop star doing it before her.

Britney, Janet, Mariah.
