The head of the UN World Food Program David Beasley “advised” Elon Musk, one of the richest people in the world, to help the hungry, noting that only 2% of his fortune will help solve the problem.
He simply suggested that Mr. Musk “wake up, see what is happening around him, and finally do something, since he is the richest man in the world.”
It is important to know that the richest people in the world are also philanthropists. They have money, they have connections, and they are often determined to make a difference. Although they do this, at times, very reluctantly, as can be seen from practice.
Elon Musk responded appropriately to the “hairpin”, saying that he would sell Tesla shares if the UN proves that “money can solve the problem of global hunger.”
He just picked up his iPhone and “responded” to David Beasley on his Twitter account. Musk announced his readiness to sell shares of the company for $ 6 billion to fight world hunger. However, he will do this only if it is explained to him exactly how this money will solve the problem.
“If WFP (World Food Program) can accurately describe on this Twitter thread how $ 6 billion will solve the problem of hunger in the world, I will sell Tesla shares right now and do it,” Musk told him.
Recall that at the end of last month, Mr. Beasley, on the air of CNN, called on Musk and Bezos to donate $ 6 billion. According to him, this step could save about 42 million people who are dying right now.
