Is $40 enough?

This was inspired by other threads in this forum.

I'm a middle wage kind of guy, give occasionally to charity, like to buy gadgety for myself stuff once every few months. Always provide for my family. We don't have a big bank account but are just now starting to save some. When 9/11 happened I took what was in my paypal ($40)account and sent it to the official fund.

Is this enough, what did you give? Was my money wasted, seems most "survivors" became millionaires and that was certainly not my intention when giving $40. I wanted to make sure the people in need had funds as soon as possible for their benefit.

I feel guilty and screwed at the same time. Could I have affordded more than $40? Certainaly I could have, did I owe it to them? We have more than a few billionaires in the country, is there gift equivalent to mine, percentage wise I mean?

Weigh in, I gotta go, my wife is yapping at me.
