I also don't buy into this 'altuistism'. If they 'save' me from owning the stock that only means some other person gets stuck with it... so why bother?

Trading of stocks, in and of itself is a zero-sum game. If I sell you a stock at $4 or sell it to you at $3, I'm better off in the first case and you are better off in the second case ... but collectively there is no real wealth created or destroyed by the share price going up or down.
