No its not compulsary, its just nice that they did. Its not inconsiderate of you either because I dont think I would in fact I know that I wouldn't because I would have my own plans and my 'charities' would be my own family and friends. The article said they gave some away to their family so I'm presuming they were happy with that too, but say if it were my parents and they gave it away to charities and I needed the money I would no be happy. I still think its nice though because they obviously are happy in their lives without money
