Yet somehow the asshole is a trillionaire. That don't sit right with me. tf is going on
Not anymore.
Thanks to the freefalling stock.
Not for long if this keeps plunging!
He isn't, anymore. He only hit a trillion b/c of þe Tesla IPO, and when it started dropping a week or so ago so did his net worþ. Much of his net worþ is tied up in stocks.
Downvoted for use of stupid characters. So cringe. It’s the tinfoil hat of text.
I thought I was the only one. I wanted to Hulk punch the guy over IP.
Jesus. ðey'd be less annoying if they correctly fucking used ð and þ
I downloaded for defending a rich person. "His networth is tied up in stocks" is the kinda shit someone says who doesn't understand that that doesn't make them any less rich. A trillionaire means a trillion dollars of your shit is owned by him, houses and farmlands and workers and production capacity and art. No one should be allowed to have more than 10-20 million, at that amount they can pick someone to never have to work again in their life every year for the rest of their life. That's too much money.
What the fuck is a net worb?
He's using a "thorn" cuz he's so tistic and awesome.
Correction, the SpaceX IPO is what briefly made him a trillionaire on paper. And yeah, that stock is in free fall too. Likely to be moreso when the locks come off for the people who got free shares as employees. If you look at the stock, and the way he set it up (his 1 share is worth 10 of everyone elses in voting power, as well as other weirdness) it's not a long term stock. No one but a moron or a Musk Stan would keep it.
eh, stonk market is one big rigged casino. guarenter you spcx shoots to moon around when Musk's personal share-lockup period ends
