Only now has he confessed to his good deeds. He did it because he's sold the chain of duty-free shops that made all the money, and is facing a lawsuit in which his munificence would be revealed anyway. So furtive has Feeney been about his philanthropy that few photos of him are available and most of his beneficiaries, which include such diverse entities as Cornell University...
