      Do you know how hard it is to go broke when you have that much money? If we pretend his estimated net worth is all cash and earns 5% annually, that over $40m a day from doing nothing.

      His wealth needs to be taken from him, for the good of the world.

        But it’s mostly stocks. So as the price falls his networth falls. He had to get loans to buy Twitter using Tesla stock as backing.

        Enough money in one spot is like a firestorm, powerful enough to create its own wind system and poisoning everything around it.

        You have to take away the fuel.

      Dude is past criticality, with that much money it’s impossible to spend enough to go broke, even if Tesla stock falls to 0. Look at Mackenzie Scott, she’s given away tons and tons of money and her net worth keeps going up. That’s why billionaires shouldn’t exist in the first place.
