What on earth is the relevance to this discussion of whether it's 
one's own money or someone else's? 

Surely good stewardship and value for money is vital in both cases? 
In fact, as a professional fundraiser I would maintain that I should 
be even more prudent with the funds at my disposal.

Anyway, this discussion is of absolutely no relevance to the 
Historian's List, so let's leave it there shall we!
