The dude built a rocket to launch a car he built into orbit. Anyone who hates on that baw is a loser.

You don’t think it’s fraudulent for the ceo to lie to investors about an offer to purchase that doesn’t actually exist?
Yeah, he did something really stupid that cost his own investors a lot of money. I'm not sure it was malicious, though I could be mistaken. Just dumb as frick. Incompetence at some level does become a crime though. Or maybe my take on this is wrong. I haven't read up that much on it.

Nice to the politicizing of the SEC is complete. Let's not go after real criminals instead let go after a dumbass like Musk.
I missed you posting about the politization of the FBI, CIA, IRS, EPA and all those guys under the Kenyan dictator......

So the reports yesterday that he pulled out at the last minute.... I'm assuming he's since changed his mind again since the filing stamp is today?
yes, reportedly the fine is double and they tacked an extra year ban on chairing Telsa

Sure he’s got some crazy ideas but that’s what we need to advance in this society. Take chances
Agreed. Imagine if someone like Nikolai Tesla was alive today what kind of slack he’d be catching for his ideas

Many of Nikola Tesla's ideas were over the top ridiculous and completely infeasible. He hyped up impossible ideas to promote himself. Tesla is internet overhyped.

Best damn vehicle I ever owned. There is no comparison imo to any combustion driven car. It’s not hype.

the man makes more money with the stupidest ideas than most people make in their life. I think he'll be ok.
Posted on 9/29/18 at 5:57 pm to RollTide1987
It'll be interesting. Stock might go up Monday seeing he's still CEO.

I have to admit those Tesla cars are nice looking. I would buy one if I was loaded.

The cars are actually pretty amazing. If you think Musk is just electric cars then you’re mistaken.

He knowingly dispensed false informationabout his company’s stock price. Not all crimes are malicious

Think he still stays on as a concept guy. He just isn't going to run the company anymore.
He's still the CEO so he will, in fact, continue to run the company.
Of course, the board could try to foist a COO on him but he would need to buy into that or they risk him throwing one of his hissy fits and publicly threatening to walk or something.

You're an idiot. He indisputably engaged in stock manipulation.
