Elon Musk’s Big Promise: A SpaceX Share for Every American Kid

Elon Musk wants millions of American children to become shareholders in SpaceX, the aerospace company behind its rocket launches and Starlink satellite internet service. If he follows through, the pledge could become one of the largest direct stock giveaways ever proposed by a tech billionaire. Musk announced the plan on October 19, 2026, saying he would give one of his SpaceX shares to every child in America next year.
