Not to over-parse, but "making a quick buck" is not synonymous with being profitable.

  As far as I understand, Musk has lost billions of dollars since his acquisition. "Making a quick buck" implies that he has made money.

    it implies revenue, not profitability

      That makes no sense whatsoever. Elon ruined Twitter for a quick buck but he’s actually lost money on it? Then he obviously hasn't made a quick buck on it.

        He ruined Twitter with the intention of making a quick buck. That he has failed does not make it incorrect to say that he did it for a quick buck.
