Note, the donation numbers are being made up off the top of my head. Let's not get pedantic about this.

There are two guys. One named America, and one named Denmark. Hey, they had really mean parents. Anyways, America earns $295 million per year and Denmark earns $5 million per year. America donates $5 million to charity, and Denmark donates $1 million.

Who has given the most? America, obviously. He has given 5 times as much.

Who is the most generous? In this case, my opinion is that Denmark is the most generous. Why? He has given more of his worth. He has taken a bigger hit for charity. He has put himself out more. He can't possibly compete with America's donation, because his annual income simply won't allow it, but he's making a far greater effort to help those in need, and that is what makes him more generous.
