A billionaire chases what gets them the most money. The public can manipulate them by making them lose money. A dictator wants power, which really can only be countered with mass violence.
Musk has lost a tremendous amount of money between X and his negative effect on Tesla sales. Do you feel this has "manipulated" him into being a better person? 🤣
Even with all the losses, he is still the richest man in the world by more than $50 billion. Musk dumped more than half of his Tesla stock and is focusing more on SpaceX now.
Yes, that's my point. Losing money didn't "influence" him.
My point is that he didn't lose a significant amount of money.

If you are running in the Olympics, it doesn't matter if the 2nd place guy is 5 seconds or 10 seconds behind you. You still get the gold.
