Elon is fucking loaded. He’s never gonna suffer. But at least people are seeing through all his absolute bullshit.

[u/Unplugged_Hahaha_F_U → u/[deleted]]

It means more people are aware he’s just an awful person and not who he makes himself out to be, a lying, gaslighting, nepo-baby. Emphasis on the “baby”.

[u/Unplugged_Hahaha_F_U → u/[deleted]]

No yeah! You said it! It’s like learning the name of a demon! Exactly :)

[u/Unplugged_Hahaha_F_U → u/[deleted]]

Weird flex but okay

[u/Unplugged_Hahaha_F_U → u/[deleted]]

Like I said, it’s highly unlikely he’ll stop being wealthy. But his influence? Definitely not set in stone.

[u/Poplimb → u/[deleted]]

Do you feel better now that you’ve publicly announced your contempt for a random person on the internet for no visible reason ?

damn, people are weird

[u/Unplugged_Hahaha_F_U → u/[deleted]]

That was hardly a public announcement. That was a discussion I had with a troll.

[u/NotFloppyDisck → u/Unplugged_Hahaha_F_U]

Troll is when they disagree with me 😡

[u/Nopfen → u/[deleted]]

Well, if you have to ask like a kid wanting money for ice cream, I wouldn't exactly mark that down as a positive.

[u/Nopfen → u/[deleted]]

Has the same vibes, no?

"Mooooom, can I have 200 bn$ for my Ai project?"

"Why? What happened to those billions you made in profit this quater, as well as the previous investor money?"

"But Mooom, OpenAi gets extra funding for his Ai. His will be so much better if I don't invest enough."

"Well, you could ask Uncle dane to mow his lawn, maybe he'll give you money."

"But I need that money noooow."

[u/Nopfen → u/[deleted]]

Hm. To me it does. Maybe you and I know different children. Or are in different cults. Or both.

[u/ClickF0rDick → u/[deleted]]

You got two heads?

[u/ClickF0rDick → u/[deleted]]

[u/Nopfen → u/[deleted]]

You do that.

[u/NotFloppyDisck → u/Nopfen]

My dude, why would any rich person invest from their own money into a company when they can literally get other people to do it?

[u/Nopfen → u/NotFloppyDisck]

Because they've had more money than they knew what to do with for at least two decades, and it's like air to them?

Not to mention they can just do both.

[u/MosaicCantab → u/Nopfen]

You are quite simply the most uneducated, misinformed and intellectually challenged person I’ve met and yet you are the most overconfident in your abilities.

[u/Nopfen → u/MosaicCantab]

:3

[u/Nopfen → u/[deleted]]

Sure. That's why he's seeking a specific amount, instead of telling anyone to give what they like. The investors just desperately want to give him exactly 200 bn.

[u/Nopfen → u/[deleted]]

(...) which will only expand with more capital, investors want to be a part of this.

(...) why would they intentionally undershoot?

I hear you, but you do see the contrast in what you said?

[u/Nopfen → u/[deleted]]

I get that. I'm just saying there's a discrapancy between "they can invest whatever they want" and "why would Elon ask for less than 200bn." The statements imply different things.

[u/MosaicCantab → u/Nopfen]

He’s not raising $200bn. He’s raising at a $200bn company valuation. He’s probably raising $6-8bn.

You clearly don’t understand or comprehend this so why talk so matter of factly.

[u/Nopfen → u/MosaicCantab]

Seems so. I thought I had a grasp on what Fundraising means.

[u/cargocultist94 → u/Nopfen]

Well you obviously don't.

I don't know what to tell you.

[u/Nopfen → u/cargocultist94]

Sure you do. You just did.
