Jeff Bezos donated $98.5 million to dozens of groups helping the homeless population last week.

But one of the world's wealthiest men continues to face criticism of his philanthropic efforts from those who feel Bezos could afford to give more.

(That math checks out, based on the Forbes estimate of Bezos' net worth at roughly $110.3 billion.).

In the past, critics argued that the Amazon CEO was not putting his massive wealth toward enough philanthropic efforts.
