Exactly. Spending a million every quarter on your local charities/funding public improvement projects/cleaning up public areas/providing public transport funds would do wonders for improving crime rates and improving quality of life around you.
Now repeat for 100x cities. A 7 billionaire can absolutely throw away ~500 million dollars a quarter, live extremely well off 10 million, and pay a guy to invest the rest so you can continue philanthropy.
