How much did they spend on platform shoes for The Ego?

For Bono and Ali’s own picture of their African philanthropy, check out:

It’s a vulgar, ostenstatious (and presumably tax-deductible) display of wealth.

Maybe the 1% actually does some good. But why would anybody think a phote of Bono and Ali flying around Africa in private aircraft, stolling in a scenic African landscape, dressed in haute couture, and carrying designer accessories inspires a philanthropic urge in others?

It’s just baffling to me.
