I’ll take a thin skinned billionaire that donates some of those billions to feel warm and fuzzy over a thick skinned one that laughs from a balcony as people lose their homes.
I’ve checked the numbers once. Gates donated to his foundation $20B and today the foundation has over $70B. Bill, through his foundation, controls 3x more money they he donated. He’s using foundation’s grants to influence policy and research at a global scale. This is not about helping anyone, it’s about excreting power over governments while improving his public image.

What he should be doing instead? Paying taxes.
I’ll take neither. Billionaires can all go under the guillotine.
