Spez literally said in an interview that Musk's handling of twitter is what inspired him so
“This guy lost like $30B under a year. I wanna be just like him!”
How fucking stupid are these people?
The thing to remember is that CEOs aren't typically any smarter than the average person. They ended up in that position from inheritances, personal connections, etc. In the case of Musk, he has so much disposable income around that he can throw $30B at something and still have more than you or I will ever earn in a lifetime.
But you just know he has people that are on the payroll specifically to advise him and develop strategy. Either they’re surrounded by yesmen or they’re too arrogant to listen to the people they pay for advice. Okay, it’s probably both.
