Elon Musk, the world's richest man, faces a 15 billion tax bill.
According to foreign media, Elon Musk, chief executive of American technology and electric car company Tesla, has started considering selling his shares in the company to pay taxes. To that end, he conducted a poll on Twitter in which he consulted with his followers about selling shares.
More than 3.5 million users took part in the poll on Twitter, with 58% advising Elon to sell shares and 42% opposing.
Musk's stake in Tesla is worth 227 billion, of which he is considering selling 10% to pay taxes. If they sell 10% of the shares, they will have 27.8 billion in revenue, which will enable them to pay 15 billion in taxes.
Elon Musk also said a few days ago that he would sell his shares in Tesla if the United Nations World Food Program (WFP) proved that 6 billion could end world hunger. The proceeds will be donated to the United Nations.
