openhandedness
Free with money
Openhandedness is generosity, especially with money or resources.
The word evokes the image of an open palm offering something freely, contrasted with a closed fist that withholds: Her openhandedness toward the charity was well known.
The quality suggests not just giving, but giving readily and without reluctance.
