I feel "schmuck" is too soft a name to call FElon.

😁

All the appropriate names have been banned.  We can't even call him a **** (Allen).

That reporter seems a bit dumb.  His wealth is not based on Tesla stock.

Tesla has 3.22 billion public shares outstanding.  Musk owns 12.9% of that which is 412,800,000 shares.  At the current price of 208 per share that is just under $103 billion.

OpenAI is valued at $50 billion and he owns 54% of that.

SpaceX is valued around $350 billion and  he owns like 42% of that. 

Starlink hasn't done a round of funding since 2021 but that valued it at over $70 billion.  Musk owns about 40% of that.

Tesla goes to zero and it dings his ego for sure.  But he doesn't even flinch financially.

Not to mention that he'll make it back and more by the time he is done looting the Unied States government.

The enterprise purchases of any Musk aligned entity offshore will be severely hurt by his behavior and that of Trump.  He’s in an excellent position for a person who ran all these monopolies in an anodyne manner…but acting like a sociopath nazi ain’t gonna help him keep business if alternatives can be found.

Google tells me VW, Ford, Mercedes, GM, Nestle, IBM, Siemens, Chase, BASF, Bayer, and Bosch all were intertwined with Nazi Germany in some way.  Every one of them still exists.  They were involved with a regime that killed over 6 million people, and they exist like nothing happened. 

So no, I don't think Musk is in much danger there.

The US Army Air Force and Royal Air Force dropped all those facilities to zero value.

All those companies were put back on a working basis by the US and Allies after the war. VW for example was resurrected by a British Army major who needed the locals to have jobs so he got the factory going.
