CNN engaging in fake news?! Never!
You could put in some great infrastructure in some third world countries. You couldn't solve world hunger, but you could definitely reduce it.The thing people don't realize about Bezos and Musk and others, they don't actually have that much money. They have assets valued at that, but if they tried to make that cash liquid it would devalue very quickly and they'd have way less. He even made that point by saying he'd have to sell Tesla stock, because he likely doesn't have billions in cash.
