I had solarcity and TSLA stock, and TSLA fusjon saved me from a loss on solarcity. ( my opinion ) But I do fear that i will lose a lot of upside with TSLA if the buyout happen to fast/to low bid.. TSLA stockholder since 2013 but lost position early 2020 and 2022.. Hope not again in 2026 🤷♂️

Fair enough, but without his investment, it would not exist. Tesla prove the EV concept. SolarCity, yes, broke and defunct, but copied by solar companies ever after. It is to early to call Neuralink a failure, and again, the concept is being copied by others. He takes risks.

that is what makes america great. Anybody has the same opportunity that Elon had. Change the world and get rich in the process. People complained about tesla money and then he used some of the money for spacex,solarcity,
starlink, etc. We are lucky to have him

It's the old Elon bailout scam. It worked last time for his cousin Lyndon Rive with SolarCity and it's going to work again for his friends, the Kushners.
But god forbid if you ask for a refund if they remove a model that you signed up to use. Cause you're shit out of luck.

Like SolarCity and Twitter? Yes, because of the asymmetric nature of good decisions (or guesses), a lot of bad decisions get forgotten. That makes economic sense. But it does not make sense as an argument "everything Elon touches is good".

I dont think it will happen but SpaceX has X and the Boring Company.. different businesses. Tesla has SolarCity etc...

I always thought @elonmusk would be more interested in crypto because of PayPal (old x . com) and because he invested all the money in Tesla, SpaceX, and SolarCity. He knows what it means to take risks, believe in ideals, and dive in headfirst.

Elon ha sido siempre muy disruptivo en los negocios pero la ventaja competitiva de sus modelos no perduraron mucho con el tiempo. Paso con solarcity, paso con tesla, paso con las megapacks y creo que pasará con otras. Espero equivocarme pero para mí es un gran innovador. Solo eso

You’re not wrong in your response. But let’s not forget elon got caught stealing over $1 billion from taxpayers through his company Solarcity, then had to merge it with Tesla as their sales dwindled & Solarcity was caught in a fraud scandal.

Supporting emergency communication by deploying Starlink to disaster and conflict zones.
Founding Neuralink to develop brain-computer interfaces aimed at treating severe medical conditions.
Scaling residential solar energy adoption by integrating SolarCity into Tesla.

Pocahontas says, “Wealth is funneled to the Wealthy”
Is that dumbest most UnAmerican comment ever made?
What an UnAmerican piece of shit Elizabeth Warren is.
If there was ever a time for crude language it’s in response to anything she says.
I think her comment is the grossest and crudest of them all. “Funneled to the wealthy”
PokeeMam, you could have trillions funneled to you if you could just:
* Build the first privately developed liquid-fueled rocket to reach orbit (Falcon 1).
* Develop reusable rockets, dramatically lowering launch costs.
* Achieved the first private spacecraft docking with the International Space Station.
* Launch the first private crewed mission to the ISS.
* Created the Starlink satellite network, providing broadband internet to millions. This one accomplishment has benefited the poor a thousand times more than any of the ridiculous regulations your faux Cherokee Ass has ever come up with.
* Become an early investor and later CEO of Tesla.
* Help transform electric vehicles from a niche product into a mainstream industry.
* Lead development of:
* Model S
* Model 3
* Model X
* Model Y
* Cybertruck
* Make Tesla one of the world’s most valuable automakers.
💳 Digital Payments
* Co-found X.com, which evolved into PayPal.
* PayPal help pioneer online payments and became one of the world’s largest digital payment systems after its acquisition by eBay.
🧠 Artificial Intelligence
* Co-found OpenAI in 2015.
* Later found xAI.
* Developed Grok AI and invest heavily in AI infrastructure.
🧬 Brain-Computer Interfaces
* Co-found Neuralink.
* Advanced development of implantable devices intended to help people with paralysis and neurological disorders.
🔋 Energy Storage and Solar
* Expand Tesla into battery storage and grid-scale power systems.
* Help popularize residential solar power through the acquisition of SolarCity.
* Develop Powerwall and Megapack battery systems.
🛣 Infrastructure
* Found The Boring Company.
* Build underground transportation tunnels in Las Vegas and pursue other tunnel projects.
Liz, Babes, if you could create this kind of worldwide improvement in Standard of living, we’d all be happy to “funnel” you a few billion.
If you reinvest in your businesses like Elon Musk does, we will make you a special deal. No taxes for you. You just go out there and create 4,000 millionaires.
Thank you for your attention to this matter
