talk about him being worth $400B is from. Space X isn't a public Company so he probably loots the shit out of it with no BOD to keep him in check but not an additional $200B.
As of Friday his shares have lost $93.87 billion since 12/18/24. He's lost all most half of the stock value he once had in Tesla. It's so bad most of the people on the BOD including his brother have sold stock.
The stock went up after the WH dog and pony show when the Musk dip shit fan boys started buying it again as high as $291+ per share. Now over the last few days it's tanked to $260 and they're getting BURNT--again.

He still has $300 billion. Enough to buy the Trump Administration and the entire Republican Party many times over.
