There are a lot of levered rich people. Musk would be screwed if he got margin called on Tesla.

I remember reading during covid about how Zuck lost billions in a single day. But he never lost his job. Meta kept paying him and he continued to invest throughout covid.

So you are telling me there is hope after all?

(I mean, unless there's a federal ruling that it's unconstitutional to let a Musk and his money part ways.)

Hope for what? Who would benefit?

[actionfromafar]

The American people, the Constitution, Ukraine, Europe, the whole world probably. The US is about to drag the world into a recession or a War Economy.

Why would that change for the better if Elon lost a lot of money? People become more aggressive when they lose a lot, not less.

And that is often their downfall, overextending themselves.

I think its less than you think, but certainly not zero.

Even if Musk filed bankruptcy yesterday, he would still end his life a multi-billionaire.

when Musk and you are both screwed, which of you can get the big money from the government
