Elon Musk becomes the world's first trillionaire

In a post on the social media platform he owns, Elon Musk recently lamented, “Whoever said ‘money can’t buy happiness’ really knew what they were talking about.”

Now the world’s richest person can put that maxim to an even bigger test as he adds a new title: world’s first trillionaire.

Yeah i am sure the guy that wants to terraform mars, neuralink, catching rockets etc has no idea how he could possibly impact starving children.

Read with meaning.

Just like Bill Gates learned the hard way, giving away money is not the solution as most of it ends up in the charity organizations' directors' bank accounts.

Musk could take every cent he owns, donate it to every starving child in Africa, and what you would be left with is every politician and his connected cronies owning a few mansions and sports cars. Those starving children are walled up behind corruption and endless red tape bureaucracy.
 
Why is 'donation' the only way??
New entity, ai and tech stuff involved (supposedly his forte), there are myriad ways he could impact the worst situations.
