      No, SpaceX’s valuation hasn’t really decreased significantly. Musk is still comfortably a trillionaire.

          People give him 170 to 300$ for worthless share. He get to keep this money, now the valuation on the shares he have got up because people hedge fund were fighting for the useless one. Now when the dust settles we will see how Musk will do but in any case he got out with a filthy bunch of money

        By that logic he’s not a trillionaire at all. They only sold 4% of the company for some 68 billion USD. A trillion dollars was never liquidated.

        Edit: 4.3% and 75 billion are the correct numbers.

              Almost all of them. That’s how the Epstein class fund their lifestyles, they borrow against their stocks. This is why the Epstein class always want low interest rates; it is not about mortgages, at least not the kind where someone is homeless because they missed a payment.

            Yeah sure I also think that he is a trillionare at the moment. I was just trying to show that it’s absurd to say he has the money even if the stock price falls because he’s already liquidated it.
