I'm starting to worry you're being held hostage in Elon Musk's basement.
Give us a signal and we'll alert the swat team.

Snark doesn't substitute for facts and logic, son. I've been accused on this board of "being held hostage" by, among others, Intel, Apple, NVidia, cable companies, drug manufacturers, and essentially every corporation in America. In short, the usual targets attacked by the weak-minded, ignorant, and misinformed. Then people are always surprised when they find me supporting their viewpoint in those rare cases -- perhaps 1 in 20 -- where the facts actually support the criticisms being levelled.

Had you invested a mere $10K when Musk took over the CEO position of Tesla, your investment would now be worth some $4.1M. It's dropped in the last year -- but far less than the stocks of all other EV makers.

Too much money? it was already agreed upon many years ago. You dont get to turn your back on agreement made to someone who said that he gets paid nothing unless he pulls off a miracle, but then when he pulls off a miracle then you think the pay is too much. That's absolutely BS
