I've got a question. If you don't care, feel free to skip this over - there's no obligation to answer.
Say you're someone powerful, whatever that means to you. You might have money, you might have skills, or you might have whatever else that gives you an advantage over other people.
Now say there's a threat, something that risks destroying you and the people you have an advantage over. If you do nothing, you might be safe but other people would die. But if you give everything, they might be safe but you would die.
How much are you obligated to give? Be selfish and survive? Or sacrifice yourself for people who might not be thankful? And why?
