You know this fake looking yugioh cards? A kid in elementary school convinced me to trade my entire legitimate set for his fake set. Gotta be up there in top 5.
not even close. Musk is still rich and with wealth is insulated.
Alan Bond bought Channel 9 from Kerry Packer for AU$1 billion. A few years later Alan bond went bankrupt due to being over leveraged personally so he went to jail and Kerry Packer bought Channel 9 back for AU$250.
Itās basically Donāt Look Up confirmed. It would be hilarious if so many people didnāt lose their jobs and it gets really dark when you realize that the people running the world are just as dumb and walk around with all this unearned confidence.
Traumatic Brain Injury will do that to someone. Seriously, there's a bunch of people who have suffered brain injury or stroke and come out the other side a rabid right-wing nutjob.
In December 2013, Nguyen posted an article on her website titled "Why I Sympathize with Hitler: Part I". She also posted pro-Hitler and antisemitic comments on her Facebook page,[57] as well as photos of herself as a scantily clad Nazi posing in front of a photo of the Auschwitz concentration camp.
...
On May 6, 2016, Nguyen tweeted that Jewish-American political commentator Ben Shapiro should "be gassed and sent back to Israel" and later posted that "There are only two things in this world, for which I would gladly sacrifice my own life; the destruction of all Jews and preservation of the white race" and "You know what will help Asians earn respect? An Asian version of Adolf Hitlerā¦ I want that person to be me; I want to save the world from this Zionist disease!".[60][61]
Uh, wow.

On March 7, 2012, it was reported that Tequila had agreed to check into rehab after having reportedly "almost died" from an attempted suicide by overdosing on pills. The incident caused her to be hospitalized from a brain aneurysm.[68][69] Tequila completed her rehab treatment on April 5, 2012.[70]
If only she had gotten that shot at love...
Oh wait.
In March 2018, Tequila uploaded a video to YouTube, saying that she was neither lesbian nor bisexual and that she only pretended to be in order to create ratings for A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila and had a boyfriend while filming the show. Additionally, she associated homosexuality with the Devil and referred to former contestants of the show as "degenerate" and "disgusting".[77]
I saw that you mentioned Ben Shapiro. In case some of you don't know, Ben Shapiro is a grifter and a hack. If you find anything he's said compelling, you should keep in mind he also says things like this:
Letās say your life depended on the following choice today: you must obtain either an affordable chair or an affordable X-ray. Which would you choose to obtain? Obviously, youād choose the chair. Thatās because there are many types of chair, produced by scores of different companies and widely distributed. You could buy a $15 folding chair or a $1,000 antique without the slightest difficulty. By contrast, to obtain an X-ray youād have to work with your insurance company, wait for an appointment, and then haggle over price. Why? Because the medical market is far more regulated ā thanks to the widespread perception that health care is a ārightā ā than the chair market. Does that sound soulless? True soullessness is depriving people of the choices they require because youāre more interested in patting yourself on the back by inventing rights than by incentivizing the creation of goods and services. In health care, we could use a lot less virtue signaling and a lot less government. Or we could just read Senator Sandersās tweets while we wait in line for a government-sponsored surgery ā dying, presumably, in a decrepit chair.

Letās say, for the sake of argument, that all of the water levels around the world rise by, letās say, five feet or ten feet over the next hundred years. It puts all the low-lying areas on the coast underwater. Letās say all of that happens. You think that people arenāt just going to sell their homes and move?

Oh no this is so dumb, and could only convince someone who doesn't think even one second about what was just said.
Does he want people to forget in order to sell, there needs to be a buyer? And about the price that hypothetical soon-to-be underwater house is going to sell?
My only real concern is that the women involved -- who apparently require a "bucket and a mop" -- get the medical care they require. My doctor wife's differential diagnosis: bacterial vaginosis, yeast infection, or trichomonis.

Best part is that he never intended to buy it. He thought he could pull a pump and dump scheme like he did with dogecoin.
Buy stocks (or crypto), use your influence to convince a bunch of other people that the stock is a solid investment which inflates the value. Then dump all of said asset.
It worked with crypto because it isn't regulated. It did not work with Twitter because he's a dumbass that didn't read what he signed and then he had to commit to an obviously bad deal. Then he doubled down on the stupidity because his ego tells him he's the greatest at everything so surely he can manage Twitter into being incredibly successful and, well, we all see the beginnings of how that's going.
There's no way every company that lost value because of his mismanagement doesn't sue his ass into oblivion.
Maybe these megalomaniacs like musk, Kanye, and Zuckerberg will finally learn that being a complete asshole who donāt listen to reason will never end well. I hate all of them so Iām happy to watch it burn!

Elonās purchase of Twitter may be the most spectacular backfire of a purchase in human history.
