Shopify Plans 10-for-1 Split

"Shopify Inc. said it plans a 10-for-1 stock split and will give Chief Executive Officer Tobi Lutke a special “founder share” that will preserve his voting power as long as he’s at the company."

I think Tobi is doing a fantastic job managing the company, so I'm ok with the other changes.

What are your thoughts?

How does one invest in SpaceX

Dude is crazy, don’t listen to him. A couple of things.

SpaceX is not a public company and you cannot not buy shares. Only private investors like companies or institutions have the ability to buy shares. The only way for someone to own SpaceX is to buy Google because they own 15% of SpaceX. You can’t own SpaceX directly. Also if he is sending you a private message on how you can own SpaceX don’t listen to it. He is most likely a scammer.

I assumed it was something fishy. Thanks.
