Money isn’t the endgame. It’s power. He wants to own the world and have all the people inside of it report to him.
I mean if he wants to buy my sheep I’ll sell them. I fucking hate these sheep.
He’s going to spend it paying top esports players to play games pretending to be him.
Elon is finally going to be the champion in all videogames.No, I am the video game boy! I’m the one who wins!
Mare, just let Elon pay for you - you have the game, you have the money and you have the fun. Elon gets the “honour”, but nobody will ever believe him anyway.
Okay Arin
“Now what?” Is apparently helping to turn the United States in to Nazi Germany for “teh lolz”
He’s just that quirky. Haha.
He’s a parasite, he will continue to feed on us until nothing is left. Maybe kill some more kids for fun because it’s the only way he feels anything.
Now he accumulates more wealth, there is no end to capitalist accumulation.
No money for social programs though, of course infrastructure, medical care and education has no role in helping him accumulate wealth, no sir.
He is definitely not the first trillionair or the richest man. he is the first publicly recorded trillionair / richest man. Most keep the vast majority they have secret as fuck.
Most of that money is in Tesla stock so not much can be done with it. Maybe take out 10% to 30% of its value as a loan from banks with the stock as collateral then mostly buy some shit that will ideally appreciate in value. It’s not liquid wealth so there isn’t much you can do with it. $1B liquid would be far more valuable than $1T in stock evaluations.
Yep. Musk might be rich but he’s not as influential as he tries to be. He’s actually kind of pathetic in that respect, gets eaten up by the media and looks like a complete tool.
He tried so hard to be in the neo Nazi inner circle but he’s just a rich wannabe in every fucking regard.
Kinda unfortunate honestly. If he just chilled without getting into politics and just worked on electric cars, boring machines, battery factories, rockets, and satellite internet probably would be a much more beloved figure. The whole twitter and political involvement / rigging is definitely a downhill move.
He got into politics because he saw the balance sheets at the companies he’s running.
His businesses desperately needed government backing and he saw an opportunity to buy himself into the most corrupt administration ever.
Probably accurate although the demand for electric vehicles and hybrids isn’t going anywhere and most definitely the demand for batteries isn’t going anywhere. Cheap boring and rockets are definitely more niche. Low earth orbit satellite internet has been massive in less developed countries with underdeveloped infrastructure. Maybe if we had something super valuable to mine on the moon or on an asteroid we lassoed into orbit. In short probably could have played the field like most tech companies do and been fine. Check out all the AI companies not going full alt right yet doing alright with massive operating costs to revenue.
Dog catches car.
Is dissapointed.
Umm actually, people keep saying he’s a trillionaire, that’s not technically true.
He wasn’t even if SpaceX was at its peak valuation. It was unrealized, floating on an actual liquidity of like 100 billion.
Paper wealth yes, but he can still spend $250m on an election like its couch shrapnel.

Elon: “More.”
Make everyone else as misrable as him it appears.
It’s like asking a hoarder what they plan to do with all of those <insert item here>.
It’s a mental illness but instead of recognizing it as such, calling it out and getting them treatment, society celebrates them and says they are doing everything that everybody else should strive for.
because society is jealous. they wish they could be him.
they aren’t jealous of a horder. they think that person is sad and gross.
I have family member who have a net worth of over 50million, all they talk about is how poor they are, how they can’t afford anything, how everything is so unfair to them… etc. They believe they are struggling working-class people. They adore Elon and think he’s a genius and they wish they could be as rich as him and they think if they were all their ‘struggles’ would be solved… they especially love the idea of never paying any taxes, because they think taxes are theft from themselves to ‘waste’ on poor lazy piece of shit who refuse to ‘grow up’ and go get 250k/yr jobs.
and there are lots and lots of rich people like my family who think the same way… and who think because they donate like a pittance of their money each year they are morally perfect human beings.
He will continue to make our lives harder of course.
If I remember right, Musk made a comment on this that was around “Once you get enough money, you stop seeing it as money and more like a high score.”
Yeah, a lot of rich folks said it’s been about one-upping each other.
Mark Cuban was asked if he wants to increase his net worth. He responded that he’s busy managing the Dallas Maverick’s. But that interview seems to insinuate that there is an expectation amongst the wealthy to just keep accumulating wealth. Literally like a cancer that keeps growing.
And that folks is how I met your mother(capitalism).
That money is trying to fill a hole in his soul of infinite deapth.
He’ll probably just continue working to diminish democracy across the planet and leave a legacy of hate and ignorance instead of using his wealth to leave a positive legacy, which would be easy as fuck since he’d basically just be paying others to do good things in his name and taking the credit.
Not a smart man.
