What are your thoughts on Elon Musk?
>>
>>1819444
Takes on the weight of the world. Moves it forward into a progressive & Sustainable future.

Has his shit together. Thank you Elon Musk, for battling planetary extinction.
>>
>>1819486
And also gratitude for setting an example for the rest of the world to follow.
>>
Cont artist. Takes all kinds of investor money for big ideas that can never be accomplished, never makes a return on investment for investors. Blows up rockets. Failure and thief.
>>
>>1819486
>>1819515
Two different schools of thought here
>>
>>1819495
Like over-leveraging your company with long-term debt, pissing away investor's money by operating with a negative net income quarter after quarter, using Wall St to push your company's stock, then paying yourself $1.6bn in 2022 with aforementioned ill-gotten profits all the while pretending to have the good of the human race in mind so sucks who can't read financial statements fall for your bullshit and buy Tesla stock?

Sounds like a real stand up humanitarian lad.
>>
>>1819516
This anon - >>1819515 - is right though. Hyperloop is a good place to start. It is never going to be built and any backers on that project are never going to see a dime. It is possible to build but there was a very simple but very major security issue that was somehow "overlooked" and as a result, Hyperloop is rip.
>>
Narcissistic con artist

How many more billions is Tesla going to have to lose before this shit gets called out?

Space X is essentially a tax payer bottle rocket project at this point

I'm okay with the government subsidizing technology, but lets get some fucking ROI on this shit

>Founding paypal

Muskology has come a long ways in Mythos building. Next they'll say he made his billions from successful businesses.
>>
>>1819520

It's best if that project doesn't get made. It's almost inevitable that one of those poos building it would mess up and cause the vacuum tube to break and kill everyone
>>
>>1819444
Also, fuck that lying picture you posted.

>tough childhood in South Africa

You mean growing up with a fucking model for a mother and living in Pretoria? Yeah that cunt really overcame a whole lot of struggle.
>>
>>1819529
he was bullied in a way that most people would be forever fucked up by. He was once thrown down a staircase, and once beaten to unconsciousness by his classmates
>>
>>1819524

Muskology is essentially a cult at this point.

Look at faggot op, he makes two to three of these threads every single day, and worse of all, he's most likely doing it for free and not even a paid shill
>>
>>1819532
Oh you mean him getting picked on for being a small, white, nerdy, rich male? How terrible I can only imagine the pain and suffering.

>once beaten to unconsciousness by his classmates
You want to know how I know you're a pussy who's never been in a fight? Because you've never been knocked out and think that it's a traumatizing event and not some school yard shit that you get over the next week. Grow up and stop making excuses for this twat.
>>
>>1819444
Survivor bias: the person.
Let's say that there is a method out there that has a 1% chance of making you a billionaire, but if you fail you would die. If 100,000 people tried this method, about 1,000 billionaires would be saying how this method is wonderful, and how other billionaires did the same, and how you should do it too, when in reality you have a 99% chance of dying if you follow their advice.

TL;DR: Got lucky, I don't recommend taking his advice seriously.

It's called being white/asian in an inner city school. At least his rich parents were able to get him in to a private school.

These, essentially. He memes in up hard and has been elevated to God status because he has levereged himself in the Nye-deGrasse Tyson memedom.

He's essentially a figurehead like Jobs while others have always done the heavy lifting for him.

Also, didn't his wife leave him for billions? Probably a cuck too.

You're fucking stupid. Sucking Obama cock for subsidy money isn't "running a company." That's rent-seeking.

He'll probably use a Go Fund Me or some shit for his next retarded plan.

If you hate this man then it's sour grapes. Sorry if his history changing projects sometimes don't come to fruition - meanwhile 3/4 of Trump's fucking hotels never get built and he simply pockets investor money.
>>
>>1819543
He's started two different two BILLION dollar companies and it's "luck".

Trump inherits a billion dollar company and he's financially savy enough to be president.

Fuck off, retard.
>>
>>1820197
> Government is giving him money? Could it be that he's significantly saved the government money by reducing the cost to travel to the international space station by 90%? Nahhh it's probably liberal bullshit.

Fuck off you uneducated, informed fucking retard. They don't give subsidies easily or for no reason. The only time you could ever get money from the government would be for some kind of suicide subsidy where they paid for you to kill yourself in order to protect the gene poor from further white trash spawn.

>2 - Billion dollar companies that are only worth that on because government welfare and it's already starting to crumble
>And beauty queens always ask for world peace every year too

Elizabeth Holmes also had a billion dollar company, SAID she wanted to save the world too and all it proved was she, like Musk, was just really good cheerleader.

You can hype all you want but the financials for space x and tesla all say this is all a ponzi scheme (like SolarCity was)

Fox News is a network of obvious shills, and I don't know where you're going with the white men thing faggot, last I checked I was defending a white guy.

It's funny, you cringe when people come at you with logic, the rest of the world cringes when they see you leave your trailer parks in camo.

TSLA is going to get fucking destroyed in the coming months,

Goldman Sachs just listed it as a buy, the Model 3 is set to lose money per sale, and 15 profitable competitors are coming out in 2017.

Currently 9 billion dollars in shorts against TSLA, they'll try to keep it up until the levee inevitably breaks, the 100 pt rally is going to fall right back down.

High 200's and high 100's is it's trading range.

>>1822266
i've made 10grand in the last 2 weeks trading puts, it has room to go down, but nothing is in stone, a big firm could announce they're buying TSLA tomorrow and it will go right back up.

It dropped today off of news of Teslas CFO resigning ans Goldmans Sell from Neutral status adjustment but it's leveled.

The forecast does not look good for TSLA.

if you're being serious you're a dumb nigger who is told that in order to be masculine he needs to get violently knocked out, no wonder you have a massive inferiority complex, you're too brain damaged from all the fights you think are just "schoolyard shit"

that's like saying "ya gettin shot is just day to day life in chiraq, no big deal stop making excuses"

>>1819574
>Apollo 11 went to the moon for $300m (in 1969 USdollars)

Translating to modern day that's about 1.5 to 2 Billion dollars. So 1/5th to 1/8th the price for a project which greatly decreases the cost of space exploration beyond the moon.
