Tesla has sold 7 million and something cars in total according to google. If each of those was 100k, that would still be less than a trillion in total. How could one guy get paid more than the whole company ever made?
In the market these days, it’s not what you’re making now but the future potential of what you might make in the future. And Musk is an expert in dreaming big and make other people believe it.
Ya most of his shit is stupid though. The cyber truck, terra forming mars with nukes, the hyperlopp, etc. The Tesla dream was there before him. I just don’t get it…
Because it’s nonsense. We’re a decade past the promised rollout of full self driving, the hyperloop is a failure, the cybertruck is a flop, China makes EVs significantly better and cheaper than Tesla. The batteries they’re selling are looking more and more likely to get leapfrogged by solid state batteries too. Half the world refuses to touch anything his companies produce.
Tesla stock should be in the shitter, but results don’t matter anymore.

This is supposed to be paid out over time based on future performance milestones. Also based on projected increased value of shares as a result.
Still insanely, insanely high though.
Speculative economy go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Based on his performance or Telsa workers performance?

the hyperloop was an actual scam to stop claifornias fast rail system from being developed, long enough for elaine chao to block its funding.
Yup, but they actually built one in Vegas. It’s a joke. It’s two Tesla with drivers going about 25mph in tunnels.
Hyperloop was Musk’s tactic to distract from and destroy sensible public transportation. Tesla didn’t work on it or plan for it.
It appears to me that your average human isn’t particularly smart so this hasn’t been to his detriment yet.
