Elon Musk’s net worth crossed $1 trillion 🔥🤯 the first human being in history to do it.
And right on cue, the usual crowd is crying about “oligarchy” and “inequality.” Let me explain something to the economically illiterate , psst pay attention
@SenWarren @BernieSanders
Nobody handed Elon a trillion dollars. There is no vault. His wealth is stock ownership in companies he built , priced by millions of investors voting with their own money, today, in the open market.
What did those companies actually deliver?
🚗
$TSLA Tesla forced the entire global auto industry into EVs. Nobody else moved until he made them.
🚀
$SPCX SpaceX made rockets reusable and collapsed the cost of reaching orbit. NASA depends on it.
🛰️ Starlink beams internet to millions of people governments and telecoms ignored for decades.
👷 Tens of thousands of high paying jobs across Texas, California, Nevada, Florida.
And today’s IPO didn’t just enrich Elon roughly 4,400 SpaceX employees could be now millionaires from this listing alone.
That’s what wealth creation looks like. Value first. Fortune second. Always in that order.
Congrats
@elonmusk. Congrats to every engineer at SpaceX and Tesla.
You didn’t take a trillion dollars from anyone. You created trillions in value !!!
