he is worth FOUR BILLION PEOPLE
should not be physically possible, it's a failure of humanity
No, he has ownership in stuff valued at X amount.
> should not be physically possible
And it isn't. It's all imaginary. He doesn't have 4 billion apples compared to my 1 apple.
> it's a failure of humanity
People need to stop letting emotions override their critical thinking.
It's a failure of critical thinking, not humanity (unless you judge humanity on its ability to think critically, in which case it's you and not Elon Musk that is leading towards the failure of humanity).
Musk has told tens of billions of dollars in stocks over the years
in just 2021 he sold $40 BILLION in stock
even single-digit billionaires are wealthy beyond comprehension
Musk could sell $100 BILLION in stock this year if he wanted, that's not imaginary
btw every other billionaire has donated to charity, Musk never does
even the evil Koch Bros have funded hospital cancer wings all over, Musk never does
instead he created his own fake Foundation and only gave it $14 Billion for his own projects
he's silo-ing insane levels of wealth, the worst kind of person
I guess the difference between you and I; I don't judge someone's worth that way.
I also don't presume to tell others what to do with their own stuff.
Monetary wealth at those levels is imaginary. Once you can get past that, you'll be a much happier person.
Also, I don't think someone "silo-ing insane levels of wealth" is worse than a child murderer.
What isn’t imaginary is the outsize leverage that his 4 billion non-Apples afford him…
