My "spare me" could really have been summarized as "1st world problems". Giving stuff away to needy trumps my own personal feelings of "obligated to do something with a gift given to me". Maybe I over-prioritize in my head about this kinda thing, but reading OP post about experiencing stress sounds kinda lame or just words from too young a person.

"First world problems" is also unkind, you're dismissing someone else's feelings because you personally don't have the same problem.

The guy started a company in 1998, I'm guessing he's not what you call young.
