    The only people that believe Musk can score the payday with the ludicrous contractual obligations:

    A) Lemmy

    B) Musk

    Contract terms to get to $1,000,000,000,000:

    • Market Capitalization: Tesla’s value must increase to $8.5 trillion from its current valuation (around $1.4 trillion at the time of the vote).
    • Vehicle Deliveries: Achieve 20 million vehicle deliveries.
    • Robotaxi Fleet: Bring one million self-driving Robotaxis into commercial operation.
    • Robotics: Deliver one million Optimus humanoid robots.
    • FSD Subscriptions: Reach 10 million active Full Self-Driving (FSD) subscriptions.
    • Core Profit: Earn up to $400 billion in core profit (adjusted EBITDA).

    Does anyone in the room think any of these goals are achievable?! Not even worth discussion, and yet y’all mad.

    The board played the fool for a fool just to keep him working overtime, knowing they’ll never pay out.

    Wow, such riches. Imagine being on the verge of achieving such a big number and conclusively proving that you have utterly failed at life.

      with all that money, he couldnt fix his botched penis from a surgery, and maybe going to rehab for his alcohol and ketamine addiction.

      Before social media we could imagine billionaires as reclusive geniuses. Now we know they are just suck up edgelords.

    If you’re still driving a Tesla at this point in the game, you’re complicit. Barely any Tesla owners would be in such a financially precarious position that they couldn’t change cars. It’s been long enough.

    Tesla is a MAGA brand, period.

        Tesla cars have lost a lot of value here, so there’s not a ton of choice but to keep them for those unfortunate souls that did buy one.

            Okay, yeah. But especially since Elon had been shooting himself in the foot. Nobody wants to buy Tesla.

            Regardless of the reason, it’s hard to sell them at a reasonable price.

      I’m all for this but I’m not having any of whatever we make Elon into (probably a stroganoff or something) because it’s probably tainted with ketamine. I need to keep my wits about me in that restaurant, trippin’ balls is for the rave afterwards (where we smoke the rest of the billionaires that we made into drugs)

    I hope it overflows to zero. Or better yet, overflows to -1000000000000.

    It’s all about power and status. Trump was sad because he could never get past low billionaire status on his own, because he’s a shitty businessman and not very bright. That made him prime candidate for President, because he craved the power and status and couldn’t get it by raking in more money than the others, and he’s stupid enough to be easily manipulated. So, he was installed as President.

    Trump turned around and cucked Musk. Musk is now trying to become the first known trillionaire* to get back at Trump, and the rest of the billionaire assholes.

    *Putin might actually be worth over a trillion, no one knows for sure.
