Musk

[ElwoodBlues1]

By the way, why is there a tendency to put our faith in billionaires to be altruistic? Even the philanthropic ones donate only a portion of the tax they're able to save through one dodge or another. Musk is going to expect a payoff for his $61b investment and I doubt he gives a rat's arse about the public good.

I would have thought the so-called billionaire Donald J. Trump would have opened everyone's eyes. Unlike in the "What have the Romans ever done for us?" sketch, I'm pretty confident that "What has Trump ever done for the battlers?" wouldn't elicit a string of achievements. But the richest did pretty well out of him. And Jared Kushner even scored a $2b dollar investment out of the Saudis after Trump sent him there as the emissary for world peace. 

Share price has already climbed and he can claim on that margin loan, plus he funded the cash component from his Tesla shareholdings.
He wont be losing and like Tesla run at a loss and still make money on his shares.
