RE: 44BN loss and maybe some folk will stop worshipping him?
Musk is worth $250 Billion ( Fortune Magazine estimate ), give or take $10 Billion.
A $44 Billion loss would still make him worth above or a little below $200 Billion ( not that he needs the money ).
A 20% loss on a single deal should dent the “Genius” moniker pretty heavily.
Tesla profits in China are the funding for the Twitter gambit with plenty to spare.
