I'm a Tesla investor. It's not about a cult. Tesla is the fastest growing manufacturing company in the history of the world. They are the only profitable EV company and deploy the most stationary storage. They are leaders in distributed energy services and are positioning themselves well to earn ARR from every battery and car they sell.

I used to wonder why anyone who wasn't part of the Steve Jobs cult would buy Apple since they sold overpriced junk. Then I wondered why anyone would invest in Amazon because nobody trusts online sales, they want to look at things before they buy. After I went to business school and learned financial modelling I decided I would never miss another category winner in a nascent large market again. Now I'm a millionaire.
