Honestly, no matter how bad he is, it's always a good idea for a company to have a person with 400 billion on their side.

@Velaris his $400b is primarily in equity for that company, I think their incentives are pretty aligned already

@Gen his spacex and xai equity is more than his Tesla equity. He does not get paid anything until he first doubles the stock from where this was first proposed and getting the last three tranches means holding EBiTDA (sustainable profits) at over $400 billion. Which is four times more than nvidia. And grow profits by about 40 times from today. This would make stock worth $20 trillion. He would be getting a 10% tip.
