To begin with, Farkas studied at the Hebrew Institute.

The party was held at the Sheraton San Cristóbal Hotel, with 200 guests, and became the subject of high discussion in the mass media. However, real popularity came when he personally donated 235 million pesos to the 2008 Telethon and 1 billion pesos the following year – this made him the individual who had donated the most money to this foundation, together with the Chilean businessman José Luis Nazar, who minutes later during the same event, matched his donation. At the end of 2008, Farkas donated 226 million Chilean pesos to the memorial of the poet Pablo Neruda in Isla Negra.
