... with that wealth, it would be one thing, but let us not forget Musk's repeated statements condemning empathy as the worst thing in the world. He'd burn half his fortune before he'd help someone with it, because he's a piece of psychotic Nazi racist shit on his best day.
For a bit of perspective, consider this: it would take you 31,700 YEARS to count to a trillion if you were to count one number every single second without ever stopping to sleep, eat, or rest. It would take only 31.7 years to count to a billion under the same conditions. Whoever made these calculations had WAY too much time on their hands!
