[Bobbisox1]

[Bobbisox1]

Again , I can’t answer that question because I don’t know the answer

[JimF]

Yeah, probably off-topic. Sorry.

[Prudie]

I would, after all its not catching

[Bobbisox1]

Not bothered you going off topic JimF, this is Chatterbank after all, no problem at all

[Tilly2]

Well, I don't want to talk about Jimmy Saville, so I'm off.
Chatterbank or not.

I met Jimmy Savile a few times as a teenager, and he came across as a total creep.
Yes, I think it does outweigh any "good deeds".
Isn't a philanthropist so.eone who likes people?

[Bobbisox1]

Yes, I’d imagine so Pix, bleughhh

[pixie374]

My sister also knew him. We had the same opinion, although we didn't know it then.

Don't be ridiculous, Theland. No one ever got rich by listening to people like Lenin - or Jeremy Corbyn! The twenty most generous people in the world - and each of them in business.

One doesn't have to like people (either as a group or individually) to help them. Heck if it did you might find no one much would be helped at all. It's more about feeling a moral imperative to help others.
