    The glass breaking on the Cybertruck almost perfectly illustrates Felon Musk's entire business scheme. Many of his ideas look very good on paper, but will shatter the moment you pressure them with reality and its inherent limitations (like the laws of physics).

    Many years ago, I cheated and watched the movie but I bet the book is much better. They usually are because your imagination is used and more brain power required to picture everything in your mind as you read. Like what the characters look like or how you imagine there clothes to be etc etc.

    Tesla is very OVERvalued.

    If there's one thing Musk is revolutionising, it's how people get scammed.

    Lots of people didn't just say that, they put their money where their mouth was, and shorted TSLA. It was the most shorted stock on Wall Street for a couple of years.

    All of them lost their heinies. Very (VERY) few short TSLA these days. So, I ask, who is getting scammed?

    I quite enjoyed Elon shutting down that old coot Bernie Sanders:
    "I keep forgetting you're still alive"

    I had to read it in school. Then I was shopping and it came up in my suggested, you might also like, list. So I bought it. It is next in line. I'm reading this now.

    Yeah? You see zero value in what he has added to the auto industry?

    What about what he has done to the space industry?

    You can’t be this ignorant.

    Didn't say that. But when people blindly follow......it's not good. Nobody or nothing is 100%......ever.
