Subject: Re: OT: SpaceX and QQQE
People have a long history of doubting Elon's ventures and capabilities, and more recently, hating him feverishly for political reasons.

I also dislike the man on humanitarian grounds:

That said, I'm not sure what your comment "Grok and twitter, not so much" means.

AJM101 answered that one.

You think xai was worth $whatever billion, when Musk said, just after the purchase:
https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/1...
Less than six weeks after Elon Musk merged SpaceX and xAI in a deal he valued at $1.25 trillion, the world’s richest person is acknowledging that his artificial intelligence startup “was not built right first time around, so is being rebuilt from the foundations up.”

Yeah, he knew that before SpaceX "bought" it.

But I do admire what he's accomplished and the noble goals he's at least espoused to be pursuing.

What are these noble goals? And do they make up for all the ignoble ones?

He's the richest man in the world, but he reportedly lives below the poverty line.

He doesn't.

The Issacson biography is worth a read. A bit dated now. Does cover the Twitter purchase.

He has definitely risked everything more than once.
