  @FrostyFinances 1) Fundamentals ultimately drive price. 2) Adobe has no competitor. Shop is just better than Paypal in every way. So the two don’t make for a ready comparison. 3) If the bull case is ultimately correct, isn’t the bear case best expressed as, “Don’t fight the tape.”? In which case, a charitable bear would recommend to just wait for a change in sentiment before investing. I suppose I wish I had done that, but that didn’t work well for 3M or Starbucks. I’m still learning how I want to approach this issue in the future.

  @RepSaraJacobs Many of us think Elon is terrific, you stinking hate monger. Neurolink, SpaceX, PayPal…he’s got you beat, by any estimation. Sit down. You’re irrelevant to this conversation.

  @david_parker @Heccles94 I wonder if these people believe Elon should’ve gave away his $220 million from PayPal shares? Also, disposable income of Americans in 2025 is estimated at ~$22.9 trillion. So 5% should be enough from everyone to solve the problems people are insisting Musk should be using his money for

  @greg_travis @TomChivers @cafreiman Kk, no worries. My English sometimes fails me. PayPal solved major issues in almost-instant monetary transfers across the globe (in its day), allowing many small organizations to operate more fluently, small businesses to build outside their regional location, reduced bank xfer delays also internationally (yes, it wasn't Elon alone, yes there are other providers, yes PayPal has fees too, yes the money can get held, yes there may be fraud, ..)

  @FinanceJack44 Good decision !! Some people lose a lot more money trying to swim against the waves. $ADBE is going to be another Paypal. Dead money !! Any ETF performs better than Adobe. Smart Investors shouldn’t have a stocks like that dragging down their portfolios.

  @grahamformaine He brought up paypal, got 200Mio and instead of laying down he kept pushing the boudaries on so many topics. What did you achieve in life except draining the public system for your own benefit? People like you are useless. We need less Grahams and many more Elons. NGFY

  @JWalters314 Created PayPal - sold it. Used $$ to start Tesla and SpaceX. Tesla re engineered the auto industry.Spacex is doing the same with space commerce. His "wealth" reflects the sum total of the entire infrastructure built and yet to come. He did solve problems.

  @csiscanada PayPal and WU suddenly became a singe of bla bla bla… As if spies have problems opening bank accounts!… Also, FYI… banks transfer money over WU. It’s been happening for few years now and probably still is. Is this a real account?…

  @unusual_whales The average American household has not created PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, XAI, Boring company. Many have used PayPal, bought Teslas, connected to Starlink, used Twiiter/X and in return, made him money. There is no billionaire in the US responsible for your problems.

  @beffybadbelly You can be mad at him for how he chooses to spend his money. I have no problems with that. I'd sign the giving pledge if I was in his shoes. But vilifying someone who's changed the world just because he was successful isn't logical. Millenia of economic theory and case proves we have the right incentive structure for growth. Without him, you wouldn't have paypal, electric cars, space internet, blind people seeing, no traffic in Vegas tunnels, and myriad other things. I'm OK he's a trillionaire.

  In August 2008, Elon Musk was squatting in the wreckage of SpaceX’s failed 3rd Falcon 1 rocket. Both Tesla and SpaceX were on the verge of collapse. The global financial crisis was in full swing. This wasn’t a billionaire playing startup. He was effectively broke. After selling PayPal, Elon walked away with $176 million. He poured $100 million into founding SpaceX and tens of millions more into Tesla which he joined in 2004 and became CEO of in 2008. By mid-2008, he had burned through almost all of it. He was down to his last $35 million. He split that final $35M between the two companies instead of saving himself. He took loans from friends, slept on factory floors, and at one point said he ran out of cash entirely. Forbes wasn’t calling him a billionaire. Most people had never heard of him. Then came the turning point: • SpaceX’s 4th Falcon 1 launch succeeded on Sept 28, 2008 (first privately-funded rocket to reach orbit). • Tesla closed a desperate funding round days before bankruptcy. He bet everything when almost no one believed it would work. Today he’s the first Trillionaire while effectively making a lot of factory workers rich. Insane stuff.

  @LoudSolana In early 2000, shortly after buying the McLaren F1, Elon Musk was driving PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel along Sand Hill Road in Silicon Valley on the way to a meeting with Sequoia Capital. When Thiel asked what the car could do, Musk replied, “Watch this,” floored the accelerator for a sharp lane change, and lost control. The powerful supercar spun out, hit an embankment, became airborne, and crashed heavily on the roadside. Miraculously, neither was seriously injured. The uninsured McLaren was badly damaged (with shattered glass, burst tires, and broken suspension), yet Musk later had it repaired at his own expense. In true startup-founder fashion, the pair then hitchhiked the rest of the way to their investor meeting.
