Charities.
Give a few pounds and you feel good that you have helped someone less fortunate than yourself.
But have you?
Charities these days are becoming more of businesses with the top people being paid extremely well.
So how much does a charity have to collect before any of the money starts to work for the supposed recipients?
I can't answer that but a site that may help is:

Do you know that the top Neddy of our own Royal British legion is paid in excess of £150K?
So how many poppies must be sold so that he can enjoy a lifestyle which in most cases exceeds that of those giving?
Finally
Would it be better instead of putting £10 in the box for a poppy to put £1 in and then give £9 to help for heroes or Holidays for heroes where you know ALL of the money will be spent on those it has been collected for?
