Twitter Trainwreck

I suspect he's a bit of an idiot savant, clearly a bit awkward but I suspect his mind works differently than yours and mine.

That's an understatement if ever ...

It's a free country, do what you want....having said that you call him what you want but he's laughing all the way to the bank.

That was directed to ASAP in jest...not Elon. When it comes to Elon, I'm just sitting here with my bag of popcorn, entertained.

In truth, I guess no popcorn at the moment, but a rather nice take on the Amaretto sour where you add a splash of bourbon / whiskey. In my case, used a cinnamon whiskey that I wasn't otherwise going to drink and its turned out quite well.

If I had my way, I’d load up Musk and Twitter into a SpaceX rocket and blast them into space…never to be heard again

Ahhh, now I finally see why he bought Twitter. It was all a scheme to get into the Guinness Book of World Records.

9 month check in time on the 4-dimensional chess player Elon and his master plan to buy Twitter. A low IQ guy such as myself couldn’t see the genius of his plan at the time but now, well now I still don’t see it. Guess I’m just dense.

Anyone else wondering if Elon wishes he could build a time machine and undo his purchase?

vreihen16 · 07-18-2023, 03:06 PM

I knew someone who had a private (non-broker, only his own money) seat on the stock exchange. He took joy in throwing away $500K of his own money to make the guy behind him in line cry over losing $5K. When you have more than enough money, you can afford to throw some away just for the sport of it.....

He wanted to reshuffle the management deck. That’s about all I can see. Probably isn’t in it for the money. But I am confident he will find a way to make money on the deal.

Thats sad. Think of how much good one could do in the world with $500k.

This is how I see it. This wasn’t about money per se. This was was a political move more than anything else.
