> I'm just curious, how did Elon acquire Twitter using loans guaranteed by his Tesla shares, and then he was able to unload his loans on Twitter, the company? Well that's easy. And is very typical for all private equity transactions. I take out a loan to buy a company. Once I own the company I can do what ever I want with it. The loans were taken out to buy the company and therefor get assigned to the company. That just makes sense as the company is the reason for the loans in the first place.
