    Such a payout is insane.

    The financial product of a small country that only is paid directly in the pockets of one person, who already is the richest guy in the world…

    I start to wonder, what will Musk’s payment be when he heads his governmental doge department? $30bn for himself, $30bn for SpaceX which must replace the ineffiecient NASA ofcourse, and about $10bn to make Xtwit the mandatory governmental messaging network?

      He also wants to replace the US dollar with his crypto currency project DOGE coin.

      He has wanted X to be a bank since before PayPal. I imagine he will try again.

      He’s been frustrates with the FAA tracking his planes, and slowing down SpaceX launches. That will have to go.

      He’s been frustrated with the NTSB making it harder to bills and sell cars, so that will have to go too.

        Musk didn’t create dogecoin and one of the real co-founders has called musk a “self-absorbed grifter”. Dogecoin isnt his project and aside from his twitter posts, he has no real control over dogecoin.
