With most charity collectors getting paid a hefty "wage", where is the money really going? Which charities actually give all the money to the people they are collecting for?

I think Charity Directors should be well enough paid in their regular job to deny themselves the support of the Charity they Direct. Leadership from the Top is why some of these "Charities" feel it is OK to Expense the Charity to the Poverty Line.
I think all of us reading and sharing here are in the top 1% of the worlds wealthy and we need to think of the consequences of our financial mentality, We can't save the world on our own but we can do our bit. Shaming Sham Directors is worth consideration but the Charity should not suffer rather the Criminal (Director) should be exposed for who they are. (This does not apply to the save the Evil Directors Charity :-) )
