\def\Rk{{\mathbb{R}^k}} We investigate the notion of generosity, a particular case of non-selfishness. Let F\cal F be a family of sets in \Rk\Rk. A set M\RkM \subset \Rk is called F\cal F-{\it convex} if for any points x,yMx,y\in M there is a set FFF\in \cal F such that x,yFx,y\in F and FMF\subset M. We call a family F\cal F of compact sets {\it complete} if F\cal F contains all compact F\cal F-convex sets. A single convex body KK will be called {\it generous}, if the family of all convex bodies isometric to KK is not complete. We investigate here the generosity of convex bodies.
