Elon likely had enough paper wealth to buy Twitter out right. He chose to court outside funding. I am guessing because he won't be on the hook if Twitter goes bankrupt. Still after he sold his Tesla stock his net worth dropped by like 140 billion or something? Such a stupid thing to do, though I am not a money genius and my net worth is negative due to credit card debt
