I'll be you have a lot of $5 days.  Charge-backs must be a killer though.

St. Bass to the rescue.  I find it interesting that you feel you have to
boast about your charity so often (considering you're a supposed
Jewish/Christian).

"They pour forth words, they speak arrogantly;
All who do wickedness vaunt themselves."
- Psalm 52

"Thus says the LORD, "Let not a wise man boast of his wisdom,
and let not the mighty man boast of his might, let not a rich man
boast of his riches..."
- Jeremiah 9:23

"1 Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by
them;
otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.
2 So when you give to the poor, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the
hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be
honored by men.  Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.
3 But when you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your
right hand is doing,
4 so that your giving will be in secret; and your Father who sees what is
done in secret will reward you."
- Matthew 6:1-4
