(5,143 posts)20 people x $5 per meal* = $100
$100 x 60 seconds = $6,000 per minute (1,200 meals per minute)
$6,000 x 60 minutes = $360,000 per hour (72,000 meals per hour)
$360,000 x 24 hours = $8,640,000 per day (1,728,000 meals per day)
$8,640,000 x 365 days = $3,153,600,000 per year (630,720,000 meals per year)
Elon Musk's net worth as of today is $303.7B
$303.7B net worth / $3,153,600,000 per year = 96.3 years (60,738,336,000 meals)
(One Tesla Cybertruck could feed 20,447 people)
* $5 per meal is a generous estimate, the cost per meal scaled out is likely much less

(4,095 posts)about children in an African tribe.
The "researchers" offered a prize to one child that was most successful in completing a run (something like this), the first to cross the finish line.
Well, they were astounded to discover that the children held hands, and all the children crossed together.
Then the children shared in the prize.
The Researched (must have been Americans) questioned the children, as to why they didn't try to reach the line first and thus receive all the benefits or prize.
The children then responded - why should one get the prize and everyone else would not receive anything? By crossing the line together, they would all share in the prize.
It was something like that.... maybe we can learn something from those Countries and their children.
