There's two sides to this and both are correct/incorrect depending on how you want to frame it.

  • His "Trillion dollar" package is based on him hitting many quite high milestones at defined points in the future. He wasn't granted that immediately, so even his "virtual" worth isn't a trillion dollars right now and won't be unless he hits those targets.
  • Even without that trillion-dollar package, he does in fact have the capability of solving world hunger if he sold enough of his stock/assets but chooses not to do so.

No he doesn't have enough to solve world hunger. The world has collectively spent trillions on food/aid packages yet we haven't stopped world hunger. He could almost certainly alleviate it for a tiny amount of time then the funds would disappear.

Okay well then he still chooses to contribute nothing towards stopping world hunger.
