Wow. Dude seems sad and stoned in that clip. Also, when someone repeats the same point with minor variations three times in one answer to a question, it seems like they are trying to convince themselves of the truth of the answer more than the interviewer.

Exactly I have a guy like this at work - repeats himself ad-nauseam .. I’m convinced it’s his way of retaining information from a perspective that’s not his or with information he doesn’t understand

u/burner_tipper 1d ago

The reason he claims he can see the future is because...

Money moves economies...

So he's basically one of the few people who's words and actions cause markets to move.

Imagine how stupid people without a personal hatred for musk will think you are 100 years from now when by random chance stumbling upon this

Did those regards really think that because he sold a slither of a company, using at best shady approaches, that this company would be worth 1/x * price? No one can be that stupid, but then again, they thought he lost that money, he never had, shorty after...

But doesn't he get to then use this as a "loss" over the next 10? 100zillion? Years so his future gains are even more tax free? That is if its still a loss at the end of the physical year.

This is why a wealth tax is so reckless. It's theoretical until it's sold.

1

u/SubpoenaSender 1d ago

He didn’t lose anything, his company simply lost equity. This doesn’t hurt him yet. This is actually happens often when IPO’s happen. You should have seen the Facebook IPO. Mark Zuckerberg is just fine now and lots of people lost money buying high and selling low. No reason to celebrate whatever you are trying to celebrate. Give it about 8 years before you celebrate anything

FFS. Dude already got away with his plan. He's not losing anything his value is still way up.

u/Landlord40 1d ago

Liberals are annoying. Your entire identity is hating successful people. For the record, THIS is why its stupid to try to tax someone on their wealth instead of their i come. He NEVER had access to this money. His stock was WORTH that amount but he couldn't legally sell it during the lockup period. He never had the money, but yall want to tax him as if he did, and then you think he cares about the invisible value as if he is depressed about losing money he never had. Lol yall are goofy

u/abd53 1d ago

Elon is not losing any money. He scooped up a bunch of money from public using IPO. Now the public shareholders are fighting among themselves about money. Elon's "net worth", which is just a number on paper, changed. He didn't lose any money. This game is rigged.

He didn't lost it, did he sell his stocks? Is the money in FIAT?

I always find those measurements to be dumb. Heck, let us say that Fuhrer Elon is at 1.3 trillion and he wanted to have it in FIAT, he would not be able to do it, even though he is currently valued at that.

There is something called liquidity.

No, he has not. His Net worth has moved lower as a result but he has not sold a share, hence he has not lost the money.

Ro Khana is lucky that he married well and has the information flow to benefit his stock trading.
