Madonna's homeless brother.

Reason's Hit & Run takes the opportunity to attack the big pop star:
For the Material Girl, charity, apparently, does not begin at home. Born and raised in Bay City, Michigan, Madonna gave $135,600 in campaign donations to Democrats last year. And two years ago she contributed $11 million of her own money toward Raising Malawi, an elite academy she founded for impoverished girls in Malawi. The academy was abandoned this year after $3.8 million was spent without a brick ever being laid.
It's one thing to spend on a charity — and Madonna seems to have a problem getting that right — and another to hand out money to individual friends and family. What is the whole story here? What problems led to this man's downfall? I see that he was fired from a job in his father's vineyard and winery. I know, it seems so easy to punch Madonna around, but we're talking about a 50-year-old man. There's a long history to his predicament, and we don't know what it is.

Madonna should probably...
Set up a trust to give her brother at least a modest home.
Set up that trust, unless his past behavior was truly heinous.
Set up that trust and give large sums to charities helping the homeless.
Leave him in the gutter where he belongs, since that's where he is, and spend on whatever she likes.
