We all know mate. No one is saying he has a trillion dollars sitting in a bank account. Money is also fake. We made it up. It's just less fake to you than stocks.

Stocks are speculation on the value of a company. Currency is speculation on the value of a country.

They both become worthless if we all go arm ourselves and kill the right people. They're nothing more than ideas we all decide to agree on. We (the world) all just happen to currently agree that we measure an individuals "wealth" to include their current stocks they hold.

I don't know why this "smart" dumb guy comment has to be in every thread about Elon. Who is this for?

No need to kill, just transfer the ownership to all the workers and the public. Networth above 10mil should be a livesentence. There is no reason for an individual to own that much.
