ˈdälfən™🐬 💥 🌊Ouch, I bet that made Musk mad
~ The Amazon founder is once again the world’s richest person, eclipsing Elon Musk and jumping atop the Bloomberg Billionaires Index for the first time since the fall of 2021. ~
The article mentions that Musk’s net worth was $300 Billion in 2021 and three years later now in 2024, it’s $198 Billion.
$102 Billion less—
How many people would that feed? How much healthcare could it provide 🤔

“In 2021, when Musk overtook Bezos as the world’s richest person, Musk tweeted Bezos an emoji showing a silver medal with the number two on it, an apparent reference to the wealth ranking.
So far at least, Musk hasn’t tweeted about the latest change in the wealth rankings”
(Bezos beat Musk by $2 Billion to become the world’s richest person, see previous posts in thread.)

SapphireThat's enough to give $15k to every homeless person in the US. That's just enough to pull them above the poverty line for a year. Doesn't come close to solving their problem though.
It's not enough to make a dent overall US medical debt, but he could have bought & forgiven the debt from everyone who owes $1k or less and had money leftover.
In short, he couldn't have permanently solved any of the world's problems w/that money but he coulda helped a lotta ppl.
