    I haven’t followed this fella, but I assume he’s done a lot of really good work if he’s earned so much money. Kudos to him. I hope to be following in his footsteps some day, once I get my promotion!

      Yes, the delightful chap is worth every penny. He’s a testament to how intelligence and honesty can be a winning combination.

      I’ve got nothing to bet, but my money is on him hitting $1 Trillion in 2030, right as the tipping point caves and the biggliest depression starts. The Great was already taken, so we’ll have to use bigly lol

    I don’t understand economics. All I hear about this guy is this went wrong for him and that and he floundered that thing and this other project of his is literally a dumpster fire burning money and the boards of every company he is involved in are furious at him because he keeps losing them money and he lost 2 fantastillion dollars in this hare-brained venture and, oh yeah, he now has more money than anyone in history ever including himself.

      His worth is mostly from Tesla. Tesla’s stock value is absurd and divorced from their market share and earnings.

        To give an idea of how absurd Tesla stock is, Tesla valuation is higher than the next 35 automakers COMBINED!

      This isn’t economics. The stock market is more of a casino.

    Oh, cool.

    Kill him and get that money redistributed.

    It’s what Adam Smith would have wanted.

    Can we start taxing the world’s worst person too? God I hope Tesla stock collapses and take everything of his with it.

    Soon there will be news about the world’s first trillionaire… and some people will even be excited about it. Sigh…

    And we fell that this Nazi had some fight with trump, so we stopped boycotting Tesla.
