If you got 500,000 a day since Christ was born you would be second richest man by about 30 billion. Only just under 370 billion.

Damn how many fuel teams you could jave and never know you spent the money.LOL So it is drag race related.

I'd put down the bottle.

WTF are you talking about. maybe after put down your crack pipe you can check the numbers. 500,000 a day for year is 182,500,000 times 2025 years =369,562,500,000 even if add 50 mil for 1/4 of this year and 253 mil for leap years. You would still be way short of Musks 400 billion reported net worth.

Is there a point to this or are you just unhappy with Musk?

only point is just how much he has amassed. Hell think dude is cool as hell. Not many billionaires would take time to do job he is doing. Not to mention seems like normal dude not stupid high IQ damn near trillionaire.

As stated it is intersting fact.

What makes you think unhappy with him?

Just wondering bud.....I'm down $40K in the the last couple days with the Trumps tariff deal and I still support what he and Musk are doing....I pay my dues if they maga.....bitter medicine but long term we should get healthy

A Presidential term is but 4 short years (Captain Obvious). And, so far, it's all been done by executive fiat, aka EO's. Therefore it can all be undone as he did Oboys and Obiden did his. Unless the "loser" repubs codify it into law it'll amount to nothing more than 4 years of smoke and mirrors. And, with the precedent of increased executive power being established it will be passed on to the dems (at least at some point). In short, it will be the usual 1 step forward and 2 steps back. Come on legislature!

Its the market never loose or make till sale. I am loving market after last week. Not a 401k for self employed,so can get in and out anytime. Also can short and loving newsmax. I am gambler and it is a game with me. Charts like reading data logger graph and a pattern of the next gain.

I believe it is mostly a correction and most have been calling for it to be coming for while. Tariff's did cause nervous to dump or the smart to pull and wait. Trump told everyone in advqnce and everyone knows how nervous people get when comes to moiney.

Hey its good time to be looking for new stuff.

We hired Trump for border control, drugs and crime. I cannot wait to see the list of wasted money and who’s tied to it. You can bet there is major scrambling going on right now. Lmao seeing the North West protests..
When we get to free trade the belt will be loosened up on us. I hope it happens fast for this administration.

Agree is congress do not get off ass and make some into law it will turn back around and be short term gulp of aire for drowning country.

What this administration is doing is exciting! This will stimulate the US and get things rolling. All the Dems did was print and spend! That’s why we are here!
Like I said ; wait till the list comes out on who spent and who approved. Game over!!

The who approved list is what I want to see. Any bets if matchs to richest of group?

I just want advisor of those turning 180k a hyear into 29,mill is 6 years. Who ever that is they need to advise us all.

You left out taxes and inflation and ajust for cost of living. Back in year 0001 did you start investing in the stock market. Just saying you might just be a little off!

He's the poster child for dollar cost averaging!

Right now America is on the verge of a real Depression if we do not get our Spending and Deficit under control. Most people do not want to talk about the 800 pound Gorilla in the room but it is there and it is a problem. A BIG problem.

I think the Stock Market may be over inflated and that could be another problem.

Those two big problems are related, people do not really want to talk about Federal deficit so Stock Market will not crash. And Vice Versa.

Both are going to take some sacrifices before it gets better, if we do not do it America is in big trouble. The Federal Deficit we have to get it under control and that may be painful at first, but much less painful than a Depression. This is why I support Trump so much, he is only one to ever really take American jobs, Government spending and taxes seriously.

Tariffs are a very effective tool in bringing back work but that to will not be done over night. And it will cost us more until those jobs are brought back here. The initial thought on Tariffs is it will raise cost to consumers in effect another tax on us. The real fact is working Americans here are being penalized and taxed for Made in America. The Tariffs are to put us on equal footing so we can compete fairly.

Which brings up another subject and problem. Our Tax System. Right now Working men and women in America pay Income tax to support Federal Government so everything Made in America has about 50% taxes added into it where everything PURCHASED from other Countries does not pay any taxes until the tariffs. All Taxes should be point of sale so it does not matter where it was made, how rich you are when you buy anything you support Federal Government. Forget about Tariffs for a minute and think about 50% tax penalty on everything Made in America. That alone is hard to overcome in a Global Economy. We are getting Taxed (penalized) for Made in America while goods made overseas pay no taxes. If you are going to have a Global economy the taxes need to be taken out at point of sale and not for those who work here. The American worker is supporting whole World.

One thing that concerns me is people here in America. In the 1960's America was happy and we knew we could do anything. We knew we were hard working and innovative and we got it done. Now attitude is nobody wants to work, they all want handouts and Government to support them. Some are even trying to actively create a welfare State where nobody works and all rely on Government and heavy taxes on those who do work.

America needs to get back where we are working and supporting our families rather than expecting Government to take care of us. That will take some time to get back where we belong.

Hell even America did not have income tax then.LOL

Never said net profit would be. It is a example of how much he is actually worth. If want true comparison I guess you would have to add back what hehas paid in taxes. Has nothing to do with investing in stock market, I only started 10 years ago playing with stock market. tehn not as old as you and di not hav chance to invest in 0001, I am wondering what you SS check was written on back then.

To CXurly's comment on stock market. Not sure why all are so worried. You can make money when iot dives. Ylu can not sit back and watch with all money in and get free ride. Those who are short are freaking loving it. Those who have cash are loving buying cheaper stocks a head of bounce back.

You have not loss or made money tell sell or buy to cover. Numbers may look like crap and may take while to get back to where it was 2 weeks ago when selling would have been good idea.

Who did not at minimum have a good diea that tariff's would cause big market move?

If you think you will ever see a list of which politicians are on the take you are smoking something good. That info will never be shared. The guilty will investigate themselves as usual.

ep

Never said expec gted to see list. We have list already. Anyone that is worth 100 times earnings is on the take. If you have job for 6 years that pays 190k and you re worth 29 million? you afre kin the take, If did not know that was AOC. Warren is worth 80 some mill I thinbk it was. Pelosi is in hundred of millions. I am 1000% sure there are republicans in the same boat. Both sides play it back and forth. Hey I am going to propose this bill you get money from those against while I take from the one for. We will change up next month. Tewll you what help pass this and you can deep in for x amount to pay you back for letting me dip into ----- that I helped you with, Kind of shyt.
