Elon Musk said Friday he planned to “significantly” increase childcare benefits at his companies, including Tesla, and that the details would be likely announced next month.
“Kids are worth it if at all possible. I’m planning to increase childcare benefits at my companies significantly,” Musk — who recently became a dad for the 10th time — said in a tweet.
The billionaire said that his foundation, of which he is president, plans to donate directly to families, without providing additional details.
