UN boss wants to meet Elon Musk face-to-face ‘even in space’ to explain how $6 billion will solve hunger

In recent days, the online community has been buzzing with the statement of Mr. David Beasley – Director of the World Food Program (WFP) of the United Nations. This man said:

“$6 billion to help 42 million people who are starving. It’s not difficult. Billionaires need to do it now.” The “billionaires” that Mr. Beasley is referring to here are Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos… – the richest people in the world.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has a fortune of nearly $289 billion according to Bloomberg statistics. That means Beasley is pitching the idea that Elon Musk only needs to spend about 2% of his fortune to help lift 42 million people worldwide out of hunger.

Soon after, Elon Musk replied that if the World Food Program made its accounting transparent and open so that everyone could see how the money was spent, “it can be described just below the line. This tweet is exactly how $6 billion can solve hunger, I will sell Tesla stock immediately and do it.”

Musk is currently the CEO of the world’s largest electric vehicle company, which last week officially hit the $1 trillion market cap.

$6 billion is only a fraction of Elon Musk’s $311 billion fortune. In October alone, his fortune increased to $9.3 billion according to Bloomberg statistics.

Notably, under Elon Musk’s post, David Beasley’s own Twitter account also replied: “I can guarantee that our accounting system is completely transparent and public. Your side has could work with the World Food Program to ensure this.”

And to this day, Mr. David Beasley continues to respond to Elon Musk. This time, he completely tagged Elon Musk’s account in the post and said: “Instead of tweeting back and forth, let me show you. I’m ready to meet you anywhere on Earth, even outside However, I think it’s best to be in places where you can clearly see how the WFP staff, operations, processes, technology goes. I’ll bring the plan there to show.” .

Under Mr. David Beasley’s post, there are many conflicting opinions.

The account @kolanath1 said: “Why meet in space? This problem started with Twitter”.

“You don’t read tweets. Elon Musk wants to say it on Twitter for everyone to know, not just to meet him alone”, @sipoholin137 account firmly.

“He seems afraid of publicity,” user @Giorgio21012348 commented.
