    So as a summery investing in spaceX means

    • No intention of a short or long term investment
    • realistically no control over company choices regardless of share type.

    The article is pretty accurate: if you buy in you are only there for the ride. Meaning hopefully you are there hoping he actually can produce what he claims he wants to do.

      Name one single vision of Musk that he brought to fruition.

      And don’t say Starlink or Tesla, those had no input from him.

        It would seem you took my comment as being for his pursuits, the intent of the comment was not for or against him, it’s simply how it is.

        Naming any of his successful or failed visions wouldn’t change anything.

          Except prove the point that Musk is a fraudster. He’s grifted far more money than Elizabeth Holmes, but that’s ok because some people are getting richer off his simps.

            I agree with you that he isn’t all he’s cracked up to be, but the post was meant to state facts given, and I don’t see how it effects or relates to what I said.

            edit: to reiterate I don’t disagree with your comment, it’s just me pointing out if he’s a fraudster or not does nothing to the original claim, and adds a bias take to the comment where I’m attempting to remain impartial.

      The US government is throwing tax payer money at him so “the ride” is pretty sweet from where he’s sitting.
