这是梅威瑟2014或2015年接受一个电台的采访。梅威瑟承认他有一个“善良的心”，但他并没有义务给慈善机构，特别是在非洲。
梅威瑟说；“人们说我“他得到了这么多钱，为什么不给非洲呢？他们给了我什么，给了我家人什么？现在要求我捐赠给这个或捐赠给那个的，不，我要捐给我自己，捐给我的家人，我要用我的钱做我自己想做的事情”。
据报道，为了说服人尼基·米娜（Nicki Minaj）出现在女儿的生日派对上，梅威瑟花费了5万美元。
Floyd Mayweather Shuns Charitable Giving, Says He Makes Money For Himself
Late last year, radio personality Kelly Mac interviewed outspoken and undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather. The boxer confessed that he has a “good heart,” but that he does not feel obligated to give to charities, specifically in Africa.
“[People] say ‘well, he got all this money, why is he not giving to Africa?’” starts Mayweather. “Well, what has Africa given to us? What has Africa came and gave to my children and to my family? Things work two ways.”
He then discussed the threat that he believes giving too much money to charity can cause.
“Everybody’s always talking about giving, giving, giving. That’s the problem. Everybody’s doing so much giving, at the end of the day, they may not have nothing. Then they’ll say ‘why was he giving this to that person, and giving this to that person when he should have been saving?’”
Mayweather goes on to say that he should be able to do whatever he wants with his earnings, such as using it to provide for himself and his family.
“I never got involved in the sport of boxing to say ‘I’m going to fight and make hundreds of millions of dollars and just give it all away.’ If I’m gonna mess money off in a bad way, I’m going to spend it on myself. I’m going to do what I want to do with my money. You hear people talking about, ‘well, he should…donate to this or donate to that.’ No, I should donate to Floyd Mayweather, donate to Floyd Mayweather’s family. Because that’s what it’s about.”
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Mayweather, 37, is worth $170 million. Mayweather also has a charity, The Floyd Mayweather Jr. Foundation, in which the foundation declares to help underprivileged youth in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Recently, Mayweather has been in the news for reportedly spending $50,000 for rapper Nicki Minaj to appear at his daughter’s birthday **. |
