It was the paid blue checkmark for $8 back in 2022.
Kinda old article info without much current stuff except the lawsuit against the ad trade group.
Still makes me gleeful reading about his stupidity.
It does, until you realise that his monstrous wealth insulates him from any consequences, deflecting them onto the heads of mortals. No matter what he does, he’ll be alright.
Ugh… it drives me nuts!
Musk had to borrow around $13 billion for his doomed $44 billion acquisition.
Had he spent that
$57$44 billion on developing space hardware instead of going insane and squandering it on social media bullshit, he might have done something worthwhile. I mean… fifty seven billion! What even is that much money? He could have had his own space station for that much money! He could fly up there for weekends, just for funzies.That $13 billion is part of the $44 billion, you don’t add them together.
He spent $31 billion of his own capital, and borrowed $13 billion to cover the rest.
Oh great, I added all the numbers in your comment together and now it’s $101 billion?? When will this madness end???
he might have done something worthwhile
No, he wouldn’t have. Musk is an incompetent billionaire parasite, even more incompetent than the average billionaire parasite, and would have simply squandered his ill-gotten money on something else.
Probably avocado
He’d patent avocado genetics and call them “xavocados.”
Oh ok, well that’s a relief. I’m glad we had you and your crystal ball handy!
crystal ball
The nature of capitalism and the capitalist class haven’t been a secret now for more than a hundred years. No crystal balls required.
please just put the interesting part in the title.
But then there would be no title.
explain exactly what you mean.
*guys I’m not being facetious I don’t understand
it was implying that there is nothing interesting, hence no title.
