Pure investment, and to feel better about yourselves. You can then justify your deeds and heal your conscience by pretending you are philanthropists. Trying to convince everyone around of your "contribution to society". Hollywood wildfires were a good example of what can happen to material legacy - and such events will only happen more often. Your deeds are your real legacy. And I wouldn't be too proud.
Love of beauty? Is this a joke?
👏👏
We collect art for legacy — just like data analysts collect data for insights. Both tell stories, preserve value, and reveal beauty over time.
Collecting For a Good Reason. Congratulations.
Reports like HSBC's highlight the importance of thoughtful legacy strategies, ensuring collections can be enjoyed today while being smoothly preserved for future generations. #ArtCollecting #WealthPlanning #LegacyManagement #AlternativeAssets
HSBC retirees in Lebanon — many of whom devoted their lives to the bank — are now selling their homes, jewelry, cars, and personal belongings just to afford hospitalization. While HSBC escapes its written promises and hides the 2017 SPA agreement, it presents to the world an image of leadership in ESG, transparency, and social responsibility that no longer reflects reality. In contrast, the bank that took over operations, BLOM, showed true transparency and revealed the truth — something HSBC continues to deny its own retirees.
