Sure. I didn't want to turn my quick comment into an off-the-cuff analysis of the actual complexity behind "billionaires should give away their money." :) I know in practice that's easier said than done, although I also know that in practice it's still doable. MacKenzie Scott, Jeff Bezos's ex-wife, provides a reasonable example here. (There are also probably a thousand think pieces one could write about just what it "means" that she is, apparently, the richest woman on earth almost entirely because she divorced the second-richest man on earth.) I will slightly disagree with characterizing Musk's linked tweet as "doing what you're asking the money for", only because "intended" is a bit nebulous; he could be spending a lot of money solving problems now rather than merely "intending" to do so. (One could argue that his companies are all intended to solve problems, to be sure, but that gets way more nebulous really fast.)
