According to the Wall Street Journal Chinese, a US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announcement released on Monday showed that Musk donated more than 5 million shares of Tesla stock in November last year, but the announcement did not disclose the specific recipient.
Musk donated about $5.7 billion worth of stock
Specifically, Musk's F5 report to the SEC shows that he donated 5.04 million shares of Tesla stock in batches to an unknown charity on November 19-29, 2021, when Musk was also selling Tesla shares in preparation for paying a large tax bill.
Tesla's stock price reached a record high of $1243.49 on November 4, trading in the range of $1062.00-1201.95 during the reporting period, and the value of the donation is roughly estimated to be about $5.7 billion (about 36.1 billion yuan).
Around late October last year, Musk overtook Bezos to become the world's richest man, and WFP executive officer David Beasley "forced donations" on Twitter — "Mr. Musk, to celebrate this achievement, I offer you a philanthropic opportunity that you can blow for a lifetime: $6.6 billion to help save 42 million people from hunger." ”
Musk said that as long as WFP can figure out how to solve the world's hunger problem with $6 billion, he will immediately cash out Tesla stock and donate it.
World Food Programme:
I didn't receive anything
Musk did what he said, and his $5.7 billion donation is many times higher than the amount donated by his eponymous foundation in the 20 years since its inception.
Speculation has been made about whether the money was donated to the WFP, but according to multiple media reports, WFP executive officer David Beasley said they did not receive a penny.
"WFP's receipt of the money remains to be seen, but I'm excited to hear elon get involved. This is a remarkable, great first step. Beasley said.
Musk's provocative proclivities and his high-profile donation announcements make it difficult for the outside world to understand what he really thinks.
For Musk's big hand, some foreign media analyzed this and said that Musk's large gift to charity, although it is a good deed, is actually helpful for tax cuts.
Musk has repeatedly made public and high-profile calls that he is the one who will pay the most federal taxes in 2021, paying $11 billion.
