From Fox Business

All this guy does his print money. You see where most of it goes as he's involved in so many ventures. One man being worth half a trillion is staggering.

What would you like to see Elon create or acquire next?

I would love to see he but something like a struggling network like MSNBC and rebrand it and gutted it out like a fish and reload.

Buying Disney and everything it owns to "dewokify" it would be a good thing.

I thought buying Twitter was going to bankrupt him?

Proggies told us that would happen.

I would like him to buy every run down building in the cities. Hire Americans and convert them into studio apartments for homeless vets.

That’s 1/2 trillion not billion Elon is worth. If his other companies went public I suspect you could round out his worth at 1 trillion

Only stupid people can't recognize that, for all his flaws, Musk is a Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Howard Hughes sort of savant for this age.

No indeed not. They might get him there one day, but no one would give Elon half a trillion dollars for his other companies, and that’s what determines their worth.

Musk’s wealth has skyrocketed from $24.6 billion in March 2020 to a series of milestones: $100 billion by late 2020, $200 billion in 2021 and $400 billion in 2024, before reaching $500 billion this week.



That kind of wealth growth just isn’t right. Those kinds of market returns should be reserved for elected federal officials.

He will also be the first trillionaire.
The first 500 billion are tough.
The second, not so much.

Nobody would give Elon anything for his companies as they not looking to be sold but if Elon took Space X and 2 other companies public then that value would make him worth 2x more than his worth now

And, as they say, the first trillion is the hardest.

(ETA: shite, I'm late with the joke as usual. )

Argentina only has $20 billion in liquid assets.
Carve out Buenes Aries and buy the rest.
