The secret diary of Elon Musk and other fuckery

There are people with generational wealth locked up in his idiot company. They will cease to tolerate his antics when it starts to hit them in the pocket.

I am certain that he’ll do his usual “rule of law doesn’t apply to me” schtick, but that stops working as you become increasingly isolated.

He thought his Nazi salute was massive 4chan lolz but it may yet be the end of him.

How much of his claimed wealth is based on “value” that can dissipate if people lose confidence in him en mass? Or is that just wishful thinking?

Not sure how company car choices work these days, whether people get a list or just an allowance to finance their own.
Tesla were quite high in popularity, I have seen lots of them in the golf club car park and I know a few on here have had or still have one.

At some point in the next couple of years I am going to be buying an EV,
Tesla won’t be on the list

I think he owns about 15% of Tesla so he’s got about £150 billion tied up in it.

You should have put a lottery ticket that day.

I am a bit hard of thinking when it comes to corporate valuations, but for a company to be worth 6x £150 billion, doesn’t it need to be selling rather more cars than Tesla is shifting?

Isn’t it essentially because people are betting on it being worth that in the future?

Those are brave people.

I suspect they do well out of it in the short term and then it is someone else’s problem.

we’re waiting for delivery in the next few weeks, lovely to drive.
