Two of the richest people in the world are promoting ideas to address their big issue homeless proposing the conversion of Twitter management facilities in a homeless shelter.
THE Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos yesterday, Sunday, supported this idea, which was initially put forward by Ίλον Μασκwhich took place recently the largest shareholder of Twitterto turn the administration’s reported social networking site in San Francisco into a homeless shelter, as few people worked there during the pandemic.
Bezos posted on Twitter the e-mail address of an article in the tech blog GeekWire that was posted in May 2020 about the eight-story homeless family home next to the company’s Seattle headquarters. Bezos said the initiative worked well and makes it easier for employees who want to volunteer.
He also suggested converting at least part, if not all, of Twitter’s administrative offices into a homeless shelter. Musk agreed with the idea in another post, calling it a “good idea.”

Musk, who has more than 81 million followers on Twitter, launched a poll on Saturday asking users to vote on the conversion of the Twitter administration building. More than one million users responded to the poll in less than a day, with more than 90% voting in favor.
Musk is the CEO of electric vehicle maker Tesla Inc., and he often posts about his company and other issues. He is known to confuse users as to whether he is joking or not.
This time, however, Musk made it clear that it was not a joke. “I’m serious about the issue and I mention it,” he said in a post on the same subject yesterday.
A separate poll yesterday by Musk asked users if the letter “w” should be removed from the word “Twitter” by giving a “yes” and “of course” vote.
Musk on Saturday proposed a series of changes to Twitter’s premium subscription service (Blue premium), including lowering its price, banning the display of ads, and making it possible to pay in the dogecoin cryptocurrency.
Musk has decided not to join the Twitter board, Parag Agrawal, chief executive of the aforementioned social networking site, said in a post yesterday.
He, who announced he owns 9.2% of Twitter shares a few days ago, was offered a seat on the board on Saturday.
However, “Elon announced the same morning that he would not join the board,” Agrawal said in a Twitter post.
