Musk posted the bleak financial assessment as part of a rant against the ADL.

    Terrible for him. Great for everyone else that that 40 billion is now in the hands of other people. 

    It’s also ironic, that he is single-handedly the greatest redistributor of his own wealth.

      That’s not really how that works. He just reduced the value of the site. He nuked value out of existence.

        I mean he did spend 44 billion prior to said nuking. Site isn’t worth as much now sure, but the volume of currency still traveled into the hands of others.

        Twitter having overwhelming dominance may have had value to shareholders, but IMO that is at the expense of everyone else. Not having to use Twitter is valuable.
