Elon Musk has pledged to give every child in America one SpaceX share in 2027, years after saying he opposed automatically giving his own children company shares if they lacked the interest or ability to manage them.
The proposed giveaway could be worth up to $10.7 billion, based on SpaceX's closing share price of $146.03 on 16 October. However, Musk has yet to specify the eligibility criteria or explain how the shares would be distributed.
