Hilton fortune goes to charity

So, Paris loses out: Hilton fortune pledged to charity

Barron Hilton, Paris's grandfather, announced plans to donate 97% of his $2.3 billion fortune to charity.

The foundation supports projects that provide clean water in Africa, education for blind children, and housing for the mentally ill. Its aims, based on Conrad Hilton's will, are "to relieve the suffering, the distressed and the destitute."

Looks like Paris will have to get a job

Oh, I would be so mad at Grandpa if I were her. Seriously, though, as long as you have enough to live on, why not donate the rest to charity? It's a wonderful use of the money.
