On Elon Musk, it's funny because he never put a profit, like tesla isn't the biggest, spacex neither, X is draining money, his robotics shits are just that: shit.

There isn't much that he's done, all of his companies are making less profits (or losing more money if i'm being correct), he is just a jake paul that fakes being a fake intelligent person.

Yeah, its ironic. The richest man in the world doesn't have a single* truly profit-making venture under him.

How the bubble around him hasn't burst yet I don't know, but it would certainly be a feast for sore eyes.

*Edit: Forgot about SpaceX, which actually has made itself a decent chunk of money - about $15.5 billion in 2025 - but I doubt that alone is capable of propping up his nearly $500 billion personal valuation.

Corporate welfare.

SpaceX has been phenomenally successful. I don't think he can be attributed to much of that success. The Falcon 9 handled 95% of launches in 2024. SpaceX has went from non existant to a near monopoly in 23 years while competing against some of the most powerfully connected companies in the world.

I'm not a SpaceX fanboy (I'm a space fanboy). They have done a lot of good for the space industry, while also causing a lot of harm to the scientific space community (earth based observations). I just don't think you can make an argument that SpaceX is not a successful company.
