It’s not Musk’s responsibility to fix societal problems, it’s the government’s. He sucks as a person but the companies he’s in charge of are quite useful and I’m happy they exist. I’m watching my government fail every single day at addressi

Not if you understand what stocks are and how betting on biotech stocks is not a wise investment.

Biotechs are lottery tickets, not stocks. You're just gambling on binary results.

What makes it a meme stock? It's printing money from an industry that is only starting. This isn't crypto nonsense.

Again, I don’t have a choice in the matter if I want to live in the US. But I don’t have to open myself up to authoritarian governments who have a track record for targeting those who participate in free speech in other countries.

The actual key being that they get paid somewhere around half that. Other industries don't calculate the overtime potential or benefits in the total compensation figure but of course this gets clicks and misinformation spreads like wil
