Comment on Bill and Melinda French Gates and Warren Buffett’s Giving Pledge after 15 years: Only 9 of the 256 billionaires actually followed through on giving away half their wealth

Is any of that because what would have been half their worth 15 years ago is now less than half of what it would be?

Like, if someone had 100 billion in 2010, and did give away 50 billion in that time, but also made a further 20 billion in that time, did they give away half they or worth or not?

I’ve not read the article, so maybe that question is answered in there.
