Next up is quadrillionaire, of course!
Nothing. If you were born in 1AD and earned 1,000,000 every single day without spending a single penny you still would not be a trillionaire today. He will never spend that wealth , he will use that money to get loans that he does not owe taxes on, using that money to acquire even more capital. He has stated his goal is 10 trillion. At no point along the way will he use his wealth or influence to directly improve any common person's life. He is a cancer on our planet, on our economy, and on our civilization.
Its only been 738,715 days since 1/1/0001 so this checks
My calculations make it 739,802
Baseline: 2025 * 365 = 739,125
Leap years: Floor(2025 / 4) = 506 - floor(2025 / 100) = 486 + floor(2025 / 400) = 491 (every 4th year except every 100th year with the exception of every 400th year)
1st of Jan 2026 to 5th of June 2026: 186
Total: 739,125 + 491 + 186 = 739,802
Why June?
Ill tell you what he's NOT going to: anything to improve anyone's life but his own.
Money isn’t the endgame. It’s power. He wants to own the world and have all the people inside of it report to him.
He's going to spend it paying top esports players to play games pretending to be him.
Elon is finally going to be the champion in all videogames.
No, I am the video game boy! I'm the one who wins!
Mare, just let Elon pay for you - you have the game, you have the money and you have the fun. Elon gets the “honour”, but nobody will ever believe him anyway.
Okay Arin
He won capitalism. He should start a new game on a harder difficulty.
Dude has to pay people to play video games for him... There's no way he could handle life on medium difficulty.
Squid game but reversed financial status
He is definitely not the first trillionair or the richest man. he is the first publicly recorded trillionair / richest man. Most keep the vast majority they have secret as fuck.
Most of that money is in Tesla stock so not much can be done with it. Maybe take out 10% to 30% of its value as a loan from banks with the stock as collateral then mostly buy some shit that will ideally appreciate in value. It's not liquid wealth so there isn't much you can do with it. $1B liquid would be far more valuable than $1T in stock evaluations.
Yep. Musk might be rich but he's not as influential as he tries to be. He's actually kind of pathetic in that respect, gets eaten up by the media and looks like a complete tool.
He tried so hard to be in the neo Nazi inner circle but he's just a rich wannabe in every fucking regard.
Kinda unfortunate honestly. If he just chilled without getting into politics and just worked on electric cars, boring machines, battery factories, rockets, and satellite internet probably would be a much more beloved figure. The whole twitter and political involvement / rigging is definitely a downhill move.
He got into politics because he saw the balance sheets at the companies he’s running.
His businesses desperately needed government backing and he saw an opportunity to buy himself into the most corrupt administration ever.
Probably accurate although the demand for electric vehicles and hybrids isn't going anywhere and most definitely the demand for batteries isn't going anywhere. Cheap boring and rockets are definitely more niche. Low earth orbit satellite internet has been massive in less developed countries with underdeveloped infrastructure. Maybe if we had something super valuable to mine on the moon or on an asteroid we lassoed into orbit. In short probably could have played the field like most tech companies do and been fine. Check out all the AI companies bit going full alt right yet doing alright with massive operating costs to revenue.
He's going to use it for political influence to further his fucked-up Nazi ideals.
And, of course, get more money. It's never enough with these fuckers. They have a version of hoarding disorder. It's always on to the next grift, more money, more money, more money, more money, number must go up!
At least he is saying that he wants humanity to become a two planet civilisation.
When you reach your peak, it's time to die.
At these numbers it becomes meaningless, like infinity+1. All we know is that he can get whatever he wants.
