As Peter Thiel famously said, "Never bet against Elon Musk."
I'm a shareholder. I expect that Elon's leadership will make my shares go up an incredible amount in the future.
I have over half of my life savings at stake on TSLA, so I have a lot of skin in the game. If you think he's so bad, why don't you short his stock?
It would be fun to check back in six months and compare how we did!
- raverbashing 6y ago> As Peter Thiel famously said, "Never bet against Elon Musk." Yes, because for better or worse Elon is "seeing the future" and has the capability to execute it. In a world where a lot of CxOs and Senior Executives "didn't believe" in remote work in January of this year, you see that the average group vision is poor and execution ability is even poorer
- TeMPOraL 6y agoI think it's very helpful that Musk has an actual goal to achieve with his companies, that isn't "raking in tons of money" or "seeing the stocks soar". Most companies seem to be the real-world equivalent of clicker games. Do $whatever to make money. Use that money to do $whatever faster and better to make money. Ad infinitum. What that $whatever is is immaterial. I sometimes call these "toilet paper companies", i.e. companies that would happily pivot from whatever they're doing into selling toilet paper if they could make more money with it. But with TP being a quite sensitive topic these days, I guess I'll need to find a better analogy.
- jahaja 6y agoWell, this was just unfortunate timing. I hope it sorts itself out in six months for you.
