Washington – AFP – US billionaire Elon Musk announced that he will give every child in the United States a share in his company, SpaceX.
The world’s richest man said in a post on X, “Next year, I will give one share from my stake in SpaceX to every child in the United States,” adding, “This will be one of many future steps,” without providing further details on how the initiative would be implemented.
According to 2024 data from the US Census Bureau, there are approximately 73 million children under the age of 12 in the United States. According to Forbes, Musk owns 38 percent of SpaceX’s shares.
Musk’s remarks come after US President Donald Trump pledged to give every American adult $5,000 if his party succeeds in taking control of Congress in the midterm elections scheduled for November.
