is it really, tho? I think the intention is to present him and his firm as actively involved in giving back to the community.

I hear every single charitable organization touting their success. From St.Judes to LSU, they all like to "brag" on what they've done. But I see it as more of an update on their efforts. Not so much boasting.

He spends 3x the amount advertising he gave away the bikes than he did on the bikes. He loves his bible passages too. Hey Gordon, here's a passage for you:

quote:

"So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.


Matthew 6:2

Well, they're charity groups and this is a law firm. Generally non profits do that to ensure the people who donated know where their money is going and it's also to attract people to donate more to the organization. That's not Gordon's goal here.

I think everyone in LA hates Gordon except for a handful of people, so he has that going for him.

Yeah, there are plenty of things to shite on the guy for, but this isn't one of them. Although bragging about your charity is a pretty douchey move.


94 bikes at say 100 bucks a bike is about 10,000 dollars with tax.

Commercials and billboards to tell everyone what you did ???!

So you would talk about it. More likely to be noticed with odd number. Its marketing and it obviously worked.
