Abstract
Bloomberg reports the following - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-02-15/musk-enlisted-poker-star-before-making-5-7-billion-mystery-gift?sref=iW3WrQuvCrossposted without permission"Elon Musk, it seems, is finally becoming a philanthropist on the scale of his billionaire peers. . The electric car and space mogul gifted $5.7 billion worth of Tesla Inc. stock to charity in the span of 10 days in November – many times more than he’s given away through his eponymous foundation in the two decades since it was founded. Where that donation is going is a mystery, but it’s just one more signal that the world’s richest person is taking philanthropy more seriously.
