He must have checked his list of criminal dealings, saw that Musk was on it, and decided to correct it.
Sauce please? Because that is fucking amazing!
Thank you!
That must count as the most financially ruinous tweet ever. Serves Elon right for being a total prick.
Wasn’t president Musk’s announcement that he was going to BUY twitter a tweet? Seeing as it’s worth fuck-all now that’s in the running.
Yeah though his total demolition of the company wasn’t done by that tweet. He had to keep making bad decisions for that!
Buying the company was the decision to take over the communications channel by dictators worldwide. It wasn’t an accident and he doesn’t care about the value of shitter in the long term.
Thanks Carlos!
Slim might be one of the coolest rich guys around. He put up a museum in Mexico city and it’s free. For everyone, all the time.
Billionaires used to do that kind of thing all the time when they knew they could either walk the street a hero or a target. Mexican billionaires still live in reality it seems.
Elon musk must have read Art of the deal recently, it’s obvious in his recent business dealings
It’s a badly translated Art of War
this is what happens when you run a government the way you’re used to running the monopoly you own. “hardball” doesn’t work on the global stage.
Or when courts immediately reinstate the people his cuck-ass tried to fire.
More like Art of Seduction. Dude is going around being megadouche, negging people and trying to make up for it with cheesy magic tricks.
It’s sad how happy this makes me…. Oh well.
I don’t have a business degree, so can someone help me understand if this is how you win at stonks?
I can but first I’m going to need you to wire me $150 usd.
Really glad to see Elon Musk getting absolutely fucked. Let’s have more of that.
It’s America getting fucked, not him.
Keep in mind he might be working for them doing this on purpose to us.
We just know he doesn’t care about America.
Might? Elon Musk has been in regular contact with Putin for two years
However, he’s obviously destroying the US government and bureaucracy right now, but I don’t think he’s destroying his own businesses on purpose. He’s just dumb.
Let’s be clear: he’s the one fucking himself
It’s a start.
I find it hard to imagine how someone like Musk with infinite tiny-dick energy could fuck anything. Let alone himself.
Even more beautiful.
Good
Thing is, he’s not. He can, and has, lose more money than I’ll ever see and not have any change in lifestyle.
It simply doesn’t effect him. All of his companies could collapse completely tomorrow and he probably wouldn’t even notice (financially speaking).
Musk is one of the few billionaire who made his money via meme stock. He is proving to be pretty stupid so it wouldn’t surprise me if he lose it all.
Best to think of him as a lottery winner not some capitalists genius. Plenty of examples of them going broke.
He may not notice the financial loss but at the amount of money he’s trying to amass money isn’t the point. Power and control are the point. If his companies go under he’ll loose a lot of power and influence and I’m not sure his ego could handle that. He seems to crave attention of any kind. I’d be happy if he were reduced to a regular very rich guy with nothing of consequence to say anymore.
If his companies go under he’ll loose a lot of power and influence and I’m not sure his ego could handle that.
He’s currently an advisor the the United States President and has been given full authority to do “whatever he wants” to all executive branch offices.
lose*
loose is opposite of ‘tight’
Since Elons not wrapped too tight, I would have let it slide.
What is his most profitable asset? Tesla stock? Spacex stock? So long as his total assets are worth $4 billion or more, there’s no change. Anything below that and he’ll lose influence due to financial strain. I’m looking forward to it!
Why 4B? Why not 50M? That’s way enough for an overtly comfortable lifestyle
Any less and he couldn’t sustainably sway the entirety of the US’s governing structure by dividends alone, with redundancy.
Is there some finance math behind that or something? Sounds like it’s a pretty concrete figure when you say it like that, but I’m not financially literate enough to understand
300M to buy a presidency once every four years, leaving him 3.7B to recoup his costs at 8%/year to stay ahead of inflation. If that wouldn’t work out, swap to purchasing the ears of 20% of all US senators.
Though I didn’t realize that senate races average 90M now, so my figures were out of date. I was just winging it with mental math, nothing authoritative.
When has a Musk company paid dividends?
Affect and effect are not the same word.
Neat.
That’s called “voting with your wallet”. Everyone should do that! Here in Europe we tanked Tesla sales. Rich and poor - everyone can do what’s right.
Not everyone’s wallet has that kind of pull.
Here’s the thing… there’s more of us than there are of them. That’s why they’re so desperate to keep our collective attention elsewhere and to cause division or people might recognize just how strong they could be collectively.
Even collectively we might not have billions of dollars, but it doesn’t take billions to crater a company or an industry. Just takes not paying into the system; it’ll collapse on its own.
I get you can’t boycott everything because you need food and water to survive, but people aren’t helpless.
Luigi! This would get me banned on Reddit.
Dude, how do you think they got that money in the first place, bumming everybody out isn’t the move, please delete this post
how do you think they got that money in the first place
Poor excuse.
It’s just facts.
In January alone, billionaire wealth surged by $314 billion―around $10 billion a day. This is more than the combined wealth of the 2.8 billion people who make up the poorest third of humanity.
At the global average income, it would take 15 million workers an entire year to collectively earn the same amount of money
The wealth gap is getting worse at an exponential rate. How long until we all bust out the guillotines?
How’s that relevant?
Hes saying that everyone single person who upvoted this post would have to convince millions of people each to stand a chance against the financial power that is held by billionaires.
Rich people love when idiots think that they can change the world by doing purely individualistic stuff. Even if you convince hundreds of people it wont change their margins by even 0.001%. Believing that markets have built in course correction that cant be completely dominated and steered by rich people is the biggest lie in the world.
Do individualistic stuff anyways, because every improvement matters and it might make you happy. But know that it requires more than that to make a significant difference.
Also every movement starts small. It might not matter much on an individual level but you gotta start somewhere.
Works well here in Europe. You’ve been blinded by Trump & Co propaganda.
Musk will most likely blame it on South African apartheid and him being discriminated against.
Keep it up world. Bankrupt Musk. Let’s make the world’s richest man, the poorest. Rob him of absolutely everything.
I love to see Musk get punched where it counts!
We would needs much bigger fist for elon to notice. This is like any normal person losing $0.10
I like seeing good news.
Seriously, what is this feeling?
Schadenfreude, most likely.
Pot calling the kettle black, eh?
Russia’s useful tech bro idiot really doesn’t need to comment on the company other people keep.
But all the MAGAts thinks he’s a really cool boy they can all laugh at white only memes with right? It was all worth it! Right? What a fucking clown.
