Ah yes, because you'll want potential employers to see your unhinged social media posts

Also, could start as ads with links in your feed.

There's quite the gap between your filtered sunset photos and your unhinged rants against the rightwing/leftwing media, wef, covid vaccines, etc.

"Considering" clearly means something which may or may not happen, there is no requirement for signed documents when thinking about something. There was never any question that Elon could have gotten the funding if he decided to follow through with this "speculation" about taking Tesla private. The jury made the correct decision.
Jury Clears Elon Musk of Wrongdoing Related to 2018 Tesla Tweets
A jury on Friday decided Elon Musk didn’t deceive investors with his 2018 tweets about electric automaker Tesla.www.nbcbayarea.com
Jury sucks. What does "funding secured" mean if there's not a deal on paper?

The jury took something like 2 hours to make their decision. Strongly indicates how frivolous they thought the lawsuit was.
Not the own of Elon Musk many were looking for.

Now a bunch of CEOs need to come out and say that <insert large company here> is "considering" acquiring their company for $X per share. Could pump up the stock price a bit, even if the news is later proven false, and they won't get in trouble because that word apparently means nothing.
Eh. I wouldn't take it personally. If you're not getting down votes then you're not taking enough chances.There's quite the gap between your filtered sunset photos and your unhinged rants against the rightwing/leftwing media, wef, covid vaccines, etc.

Like I tell my JV basketball playing son - "if you aren't fouling, you aren't trying."
Some people are acting like some types of reactions increment your reaction score and some decrement it, but it's my understanding that ALL reactions increment your reaction score.

In any case, a negative reaction is not and should not be a reflection on how one feels about another person, rather how they feel about that post.
Embrace the thumbs down and do better!

You missed the memo? This is the TSLAQ "safe space."

Interesting false narrative you created. Facts: The share price was rising sharply before Elon tweeted because of reports of Saudi interest. Also since neither Elon nor Tesla sold shares after the "Pump" what would be the point of "pumping the stock"? Timeline:
In some cases, it appears to be the actual "Q" safe space. Lots of that stuff being thrown around cryptically.
Yeah, the decision felt technically correct. It was still a bone-headed gratuitous tweet though.
I prefer to think of it as where facts fight worship to a draw.
I wasn't suggesting it was a pump and dump. More like plain old financial statement fraud. As for motive, given that he didn't personally sell any shares after making the statement, well, Elon's whined about people shorting TSLA for many years...

A jury UNANMOUSLY found both Musk and the Board of Directors were not liable in a CIVIL lawsuit (FAR lower threshold to be found guilty/liable than in a criminal case). As in, not a SINGLE juror sided with the plaintiffs. That speaks volumes, especially after some interviewed potential jurors had called Musk narcissistic, etc.
Literally, CASE CLOSED.

Musk claimed Twitter will have less advertising revenue in the future. That means less money to share with content creators. No details yet on how much traffic it would take to cover the $8 monthly fee.
Elon Musk will share Twitter ad revenue — but only with creators who pay for Twitter Blue
Currently, subscribing to Blue will cost you $8 per month if acquired directly via its site or $11 per month from Apple’s App Store or Google Play, but the cheapest version is an annual subscription directly from Twitter for $84. It’s unclear how many viral tweets it would take to pay that off, but it could be difficult given Twitter’s rocky relationship with advertisers right now.
