I don't follow him enough to know how much of the work he does in these companies, but I know that the Tesla Roadster came about from a car called the T-Zero which I followed closely. Tesla just built on that after taking over. Elon might as well be like Zuckerberg who exploits things that aren't his own creation.
He says he has Aspergers. Probably only a matter of time before he becomes a trans-woman, non-binary or gender fluid or whatever the latest trend is.
It is funny that when Musk tweeted the bitcoin to a new high, nobody was complaining. When Musk wais tweeting the bitcoin down again, all believers were complaining. Musk probably regretted the upwards manipulation and he corrected his criminal manipulation. Musk was two times a criminal: pumping and dumping. Believers should not complain and be objective. Musk repaired his first criminal act by a second one. If a believer is angry that Musk interfered in the crash, they should be angry when he pumped it up to that ATH too. If they do not, they are just hypocrites. Musk is a scammer who scammed a scam run by other scammers.
Well. Yes. If he is intending to sell all or most of his position he becomes an "influencer" whatever the fuck that means. (I am old school and disdain this Millennial shit). The question is when did he acquire his position? Rumour has it for around $20000.
