    It seems everyone is just jealous of a man's wealth, instead of studying his success and learning from what are the things he does in business to create "wins" that you can apply to your own practices.

    Everybody takes a bad picture now and then. Diet and exercise can fix all of that. He doesn't care, why should you? He's living the life you and I will never have.

    My other gig is a professional screenwriter, I can write (30) pages a day, when necessary, so it's easy. Not sure what significance "9-28" has to you, so instead of being clever, be clear.

    I care because good examples of success should be studied, mimicked, and serve as models for success. His path worked, doesn't matter if you like him, don't like him, think he's fat, cute, or whatever. He's winner. How you train and pattern yourself is what you become.

    People, including Elon Musk, probably will not take a fan of a 4-9 team (Rams) too serious when you focus is on pejoratives instead of making insightful observations. You also spelled "nest year" wrong, btw.

    The topic was "could Musk get fired." I presented a case why he won't, based on sound business logic. Everyone has an opinion, big deal, convince people why your matters.

    Happy trades!

    Semantics aside, the answer is the same. No, it would be business suicide, whoever fired him would also get fired, then Musk would be re-hired by his replacement.

    I just edited it back to "could" for your peace of mind. Still the same answer, no, Musk's job is safe for as long as he wants it.

    It's why he was very comfortable to downsize his shareholdings position (taking gains), since he does not feel at all threatened about his job status. By doing so, if he chooses, he's actually shorted his own shares, if he buys them back on the drop.

    Buying them back on the drop would do what? Spike Tesla again, creating a big gain for him again, so maybe he's smart after all.

    Happy trades!

    Now there's a gig that's easier said than done, no?
    I like Hammett's scripting on the "Thin Man" flicks from back in the day.
    This is an interesting audiobook with backstory intro on 'the Hammett
    lifestyle'.lol, As story begins the characters and
    situation are fleshed out in no time flat and the ride just keeps on rollin.

    check it out, makes good trading audio.

    Generally, when stories are properly constructed, they keep the audience engaged. When they are not properly structured, you tune out, roll your eyes, and wonder why you're paying so much for popcorn and a drink to watch a dud. You may not be aware of why it is, but you instinctively check out of poorly structured stories.

    Story structure first, whether feature or half hour, they all need proper structure to present the Hero's Journey the best way. Examples of classic structure in features would be films like "The Wizard of Oz," "Star Wars," along with many of the "Indiana Jones" films.

    In each, the hero has a nicely constructed arc, allowing the audience to stay engaged. Of course, talent and execution of the script also matter, so, after script, casting is king.

    Hope that helps.

    Thx
    How 'bout Get Shorty? Somebody slimmed down Rum Punch and made a fine flick out of it imho.
    I'd like to see someone do the same with "Stick", another one by Elmore Leonard. How long you figure that would take you?

    I'm not that familiar with it, but every "classic" movie that people watch again and again have the exact same structure.

    Return of the Thin Man is an audiobook. You'd like it if you had time to check it out.
    Sans all the video, it still pops like a mofo, unlike the starwars series that does so well onscreen, an audiobook reading is nowhere near, evuuun.
