Default JK Rowling Falls off Billionaire List

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...comm_ref=false

A combination of Britain's high taxes and the $160 million she gave away in charity pushed her off the Forbes billionaire list.

I imagine she'll go cry on a bag of money.

“You have a moral responsibility when you’ve been given far more than you need, to do wise things with it and give intelligently," Rowling said, according to Mother Nature Network.

Poor woman, how will she survive!

I guess she'll just have to start cutting back.
