Agree. The millions he invested paid off handsomely so far.

Was it a bet or the rich can do no wrong and has more rights than the rest of us!
Just goes to show the power of money and influence! Wasn’t Trump against EVs and clean energy??!razz

Elon Musk,child of Apartheid South Africa has become the most dangerous man
on the planet not just the richest.
He will control Trump but this man is key to some Space explorations including
going to the Moon and Mars..
Given his nous, money, resourcefulness all he needs is Time to establish
residency on The Moon and away from earthly norms.
Can you imagine, he violated the terms of his student visa,something that is still illegal
and eventually being recipient of billions of US taxpayers money to build his Space
enterprise which the US govt is increasingly depended on at present time.
No one knows his deep involvement in the next best thing ,AI..
Some say he knew the Nov 5 Election result as polls closed. Perhaps they are wrong but he is a
Dangerous dude and poised to become even more dangerous as very high technology is his toy.lol

The real leader indeed. This is not far from a Hollywood movie. In some ways remind me of Dr. Evil

or would that be Jeff Bozzo and his Dr. Evil spacecraft? lol

Thing is Musk's greatest danger to mankind is the obvious emotional immaturity in the hands of such power. Deprive Ukraine or Gaza of connectivity if he feels like it

So since Elon made the bet and won, I figured why not ride the wave too.. so I bought two Tesla shares today.. That was all the money I had or else I would have bought more

Good investment or bad?
