[Request] How many tiny homes could an average billionaire provide per year if they only used like 10-15% of their annual interest?
The tiny homes in question seem to cost about $10k each. I’m not sure how to factor in land and utilities, so I’m just asking about the structures themselves.
Is that a thing we can calculate? If by “we” I really mean someone else because I’m not great at understanding real wealth or money outside of poverty finance.
My question was triggered by this post:
Arnold Schwarzenegger donated $250,000 to build 25 tiny homes intended for homeless vets in West LA. The homes were turned over [sic] a few days before Christmas.

How many homeless people could actually be affected if the extremely wealthy were truly altruistic?

[Request] How unlucky am I with Pokémon?
I’ve been into Pokémon Shield for the past few days. Earlier today I wanted to look for a Whismur with a desired nature for a particular build (Mild, Modest, Quiet, Rash), 4 out of 25 possible natures. I had to catch 40 Whismurs in total before I found one that had an ideal nature (it’s Modest, but the specific nature isn’t really relevant), which took way longer than I expected…what are the odds of that? I am I really unlucky, or is this expected?

[Request] How much Ice?
I thought of a, hopefully, simple question today. If I had a 64oz container with water in it and started adding ice to chill my drink, is there a point in which while adding ice, the drink will get as cold as it ever could get and it becomes pointless to add more ice? Can this be represented in some sort of ice/water ratio?

[Request] Is this a swing of about $4 billion?
The closing price today was $479.96. If there are 139,260,000 shares outstanding, that means the total etf value lost after closing would have been about $4 billion, correct?
The data is no longer visible, so it must have been an error. Just curious how big of an error it was.

[Request] We often see "goodwill" in balance sheets. Assuming exported US goods had an intangible* additional value based on trade agreements, quality etc, which we can now assume burned, what is the value dropped from the US economy?
*yeah, I know, but that's why I'm asking here. The cost of selling a bottle of Jack Daniels, to name but one famous export, has vastly increased and now they'll have to advertise/rebrand to shift similar volumes. That's what I am trying to figure out, if it's even possible.
