How's Elon Doing You Ask?

Post by Bubba »

From Today's CNBC morning e-mail:
Cash-strapped Twitter is practically looking for change in the couch cushions as it reportedly struggles to pay rent. Amid reports of dramatically lower ad revenue, the social media company is resorting to auctioning off items from its San Francisco headquarters. The company is selling kegerators, espresso machines, TVs, oversized neon versions of its logo, pizza ovens and more. CEO Elon Musk, who took over Twitter last fall, has faced an exodus of advertisers and employees as he has allowed banned users back on the platform while also seeking dramatic cost cuts.
Anyone need a used kegerator?

Poor guy, he better tighten up, his net worth might drop down below $145 billion if he's not careful. End up like that pauper Bezos who now has to scrape by on a $120 billion ever since his Amazon stock plummeted.

He's not a zero, he just made a bad impulse buy of a multibillion dollar company. Occupational hazard of being an impulsive multi-billionaire. The guy is still brilliant, but certainly far from perfect. Hopefully he gets back to rockets and electric cars soon, though.

Because it didn’t have to become political? Anyway, now it’s moving.

I guess you probably missed this one then:

It is pretty comical how a guy who was so anti-censorship in his rhetoric so quickly left that thought in the dust bin the minute free speech became uncomfortable for him personally.
