I'm glad to hear he won't "lose interest" in working now. I can't wait to see his next big plan after the industry dominating cyber truck.

Spoiler alert: it mostly involves shit-posting on Twitter and sexually harassing his employees.

I'll do that for them for the princely sum of $10 million. Bargain!

If you are looking to subcontract some of that workload, I only need 1 mil to talk shit online

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I give dirty looks for $25k. Subcontract your subcontract.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

For $10k, I will make vague sexual innuendos.

Idk, 56 billion buckaroos would instantly make me "lose interest" in working. Permanently.

It should eliminate your need to work, but Musk feeds on the attention and less so the money. There's not a thrill left he can't afford.

Running around and acting important is all he has left.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Hell, I'd permanently lose interest in working for a measly $55 billion.

Don't undervalue yourself

[–] xantoxis 9 points 6 months ago

Approximately 4-6 million to live on the interest for the rest of my life. That's all it would take and I'm out forever.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod 5 points 6 months ago

I should ask my boss for $56 billion so I don't lose interest in working

[–] Delusional 2 points 6 months ago

He'll start a recycling company to recycle the shitty cyber trucks when they break down or when people get rid of them because they're shit.

Asking for another paycheck since they are so soft?

I could totally see Tesla reincorporation in Texas and then the board putting another pay package up for a vote out of spite.

[–] scarabic 1 points 6 months ago

I think if you read between the line, Tesla people aren’t just worried that he will stop working as hard for them, but also worried that he will flip and become an active detractor of theirs. Look at what he’s done with OpenAI. You can say he owns too many shares of Tesla but he could do quite a bit of damage to their stock price merely by selling them.
