Aside from the satellites comment, people said / say the same thing about Tesla. If you invested in Tesla the day it went public in 2010 you'd be 400x+ richer today.
To be clear, I'm not suggesting you invest in Tesla or spaceX, but the most successful investors separate morals from money. Does that make them bad people? Yes it does, but many get rich doing it that way.
Tesla wasn’t worth a trillion dollar though.
SpaceX at IPO is already one of the biggest companies around.
Sure it could become 400x but that would be far more likely if it was worth a few billion.
