  Yeah $50k isn’t even that much to Musk, what an idiot.

    He’s still worth $200B.

    Spending $44B? $88B? $100B. Doesn’t matter. The dude never, ever has to think about money again. If he lives to 85 and doesn’t earn another cent between now and then, he can splash 6 billion dollars a year every year until he dies.

    To give you some understanding of that kind of money, he could roughly buy two Lamborghini Diablos every single day for the rest of his life.

      Mind you that’s mostly non-liquid accounting of his stock and assets. Not that he’ll have to worry about what he spends, but it’s not cash in the bank billions.

    That’s the point.

    He could burn 40 billion buying Twitter just to spite a kid over 50 grand.

    He could spend 50 grand every minute for 7 and a half years and still have 3 billion dollars.
