@anonymousvsworld: World's "Poorest" President Donated 90% of His Salary to Charity While in Office. ❤️🌍 José Mujica, the former president of Uruguay, became known for donating around 90% of his presidential salary to charity while living on a modest farm and driving an old Volkswagen Beetle instead of moving into the presidential residence. Mujica, who passed away in May 2025, often said that true wealth comes from time and freedom rather than material possessions. #photography #JoseMujica #Leadership References: BBC News: José Mujica Remembered for His Modest Lifestyle and Charitable Giving.
