Give it to me then Elon
Yeah, I could buy happiness for a lot of people with that money.
Or at least, you could drastically reduce the misery of a million people for a long time.
He literally has enough money to end global hunger several times over. He could reduce the misery of billions of people
Do you think we could end global hunger by throwing 200-600 billion USD at it? I feel like even if you could distribute it to all the poorest citizens of a country, $100 per person is not enough to permanently ward off food insecurity.
I was going based off the findings that in the West at least, after about $80-90k, increased wealth no longer translates to increased subjective well-being. Then, boosting the median American worker's income (~45k) up to that level.
At minimum, it could be used to build the infrastructure necessary in the places that need it to transport and/or grow food to address root problems.
