I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career in social work.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million.
How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65

The top health care companies in America spent 95% of their profits to make their CEOs & stockholders obscenely rich.
How many Americans would be alive today if those companies spent $2.6 trillion on disease prevention and primary care, instead of stock buybacks and dividends?
