Elon Musk’s Twitter account is displayed on the screen of an iPhone on April 26, 2022 in Paris, France. The end of the line for Elon and TwitterWhat a long strange trip it's been.

The main issue remains how Musk will come up with the $44 billion needed to actually buy Twitter.

Jeff Bezos, ranked by Forbes as the world's second-richest person worth $171 billion, is noticeably missing from The Giving Pledge. She said in her pledge letter that giving money away has "richly rewarded" her. The Giving Pledge did not respond to Insider's request for comment.

☆ I raised 2 successful CEOs and a doctor—here’s the parenting style I never used on my kids
  + stars: | 2022-09-17 | by ( Esther Wojcicki | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Based on my experience and research, I believe "helicopter parenting" is the most toxic. Helicopter parenting — sometimes called "snowplow parenting" — is when you constantly remove obstacles so that your kids don't have to deal with challenges and frustrations. My friend Maye Musk, a successful model and the mother of Elon Musk, agrees on the harmful effects of helicopter parenting. That's exactly what kids need today — to not be controlled or overprotected, but allowed to take responsibility for their own lives. Most kids don't know how to make anything for themselves.
