Nothing. If you were born in 1AD and earned 1,000,000 every single day without spending a single penny you still would not be a trillionaire today. He will never spend that wealth , he will use that money to get loans that he does not owe taxes on, using that money to acquire even more capital. He has stated his goal is 10 trillion. At no point along the way will he use his wealth or influence to directly improve any common person’s life. He is a cancer on our planet, on our economy, and on our civilization.
Its only been 738,715 days since 1/1/0001 so this checks
My calculations make it 739,802
Baseline: 2025 * 365 = 739,125
Leap years: Floor(2025 / 4) = 506 - floor(2025 / 100) = 486 + floor(2025 / 400) = 491 (every 4th year except every 100th year with the exception of every 400th year)
1st of Jan 2026 to 5th of July 2026: 186
Total: 739,125 + 491 + 186 = 739,802
Why June?
Typo. That’s probably July.
Fixed, it was a typo
Did you account for the switch from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar?
Don’t worry if you didn’t, this has tripped up a number of apocalyptic religious cults as well, they had to rewrite their time tables to Doomsday when somebody pointed it out to them.
But yeah, basically, 10 days got wiped out of conceptual existence in the uh, great time refactor of 1582. … and more confusingly, it wasn’t like, globally adopted at the same time, so, sometimes, in some places, adoption resulted in the nullification of 11, 12, or 13 days.
No, I used the proleptic Gregorian calendar, so if you want to count sunrises you can just add 10 days. Historians use it for simplicity and accept the drift.
Excellent!
If Dr Who ever randomly abducts you, you’ll be slightly better suited for the experiencd than most!
I hate that we’ve had to change this calculation from a billionaire to a trillionaire. Both are fucking disgusting numbers.
Also, I swear to God if anyone mentions compound interest I’m gonna strap you to one of Elon’s exploding rockets.
He’s going to spend it paying top esports players to play games pretending to be him.
Elon is finally going to be the champion in all videogames.No, I am the video game boy! I’m the one who wins!
Mare, just let Elon pay for you - you have the game, you have the money and you have the fun. Elon gets the “honour”, but nobody will ever believe him anyway.
“Now what?” Is apparently helping to turn the United States in to Nazi Germany for “teh lolz”
He’s just that quirky. Haha.
No amount of money in the world will make him a better PoE2 player
Worlds richest loser
Hey, Elon Musk could be in this thread, reading your comments, sobbing like a thing that sobs a lot. Why isn’t this bolded.
He’s waiting for the wildest comment on this thread and an invite.
Kids these days and their Power over Ethernet.
It’s PoE2 so it’s gooder
Now he accumulates more wealth, there is no end to capitalist accumulation.
No money for social programs though, of course infrastructure, medical care and education has no role in helping him accumulate wealth, no sir.
He’s a parasite, he will continue to feed on us until nothing is left. Maybe kill some more kids for fun because it’s the only way he feels anything.
He is definitely not the first trillionair or the richest man. he is the first publicly recorded trillionair / richest man. Most keep the vast majority they have secret as fuck.
Most of that money is in Tesla stock so not much can be done with it. Maybe take out 10% to 30% of its value as a loan from banks with the stock as collateral then mostly buy some shit that will ideally appreciate in value. It’s not liquid wealth so there isn’t much you can do with it. $1B liquid would be far more valuable than $1T in stock evaluations.
Yep. Musk might be rich but he’s not as influential as he tries to be. He’s actually kind of pathetic in that respect, gets eaten up by the media and looks like a complete tool.
He tried so hard to be in the neo Nazi inner circle but he’s just a rich wannabe in every fucking regard.
Kinda unfortunate honestly. If he just chilled without getting into politics and just worked on electric cars, boring machines, battery factories, rockets, and satellite internet probably would be a much more beloved figure. The whole twitter and political involvement / rigging is definitely a downhill move.
He got into politics because he saw the balance sheets at the companies he’s running.
His businesses desperately needed government backing and he saw an opportunity to buy himself into the most corrupt administration ever.
Probably accurate although the demand for electric vehicles and hybrids isn’t going anywhere and most definitely the demand for batteries isn’t going anywhere. Cheap boring and rockets are definitely more niche. Low earth orbit satellite internet has been massive in less developed countries with underdeveloped infrastructure. Maybe if we had something super valuable to mine on the moon or on an asteroid we lassoed into orbit. In short probably could have played the field like most tech companies do and been fine. Check out all the AI companies not going full alt right yet doing alright with massive operating costs to revenue.
It’s like asking a hoarder what they plan to do with all of those <insert item here>.
It’s a mental illness but instead of recognizing it as such, calling it out and getting them treatment, society celebrates them and says they are doing everything that everybody else should strive for.
Umm actually, people keep saying he’s a trillionaire, that’s not technically true.
He wasn’t even if SpaceX was at its peak valuation. It was unrealized, floating on an actual liquidity of like 100 billion.
Paper wealth yes, but he can still spend $250m on an election like its couch shrapnel.
Yeah. IIRC he even needed external investors to buy the bloody Twitter.
Make everyone else as misrable as him it appears.
Elon: “More.”
He’s going to use it for political influence to further his fucked-up Nazi ideals.
And, of course, get more money. It’s never enough with these fuckers. They have a version of hoarding disorder. It’s always on to the next grift, more money, more money, more money, more money, number must go up!
Until he’s the only free person in the world and absolutely everyone else is either dead or a slave owned by him, he’s not done.
Dog catches car.
Is dissapointed.
Imagine having all that and still being a worthless gross PoS. Lol I would be the worst philanthropist you ever seen— meaning I’d be giving money to good stuff like food and climate and eduction while simultaneously making life a living hell for anyone who votes against that stuff. I’m talking hiring people to nonstop hate on those types till they quit social media. Give me your money so I can buy the US Senate; we getting shit won.
If I remember right, Musk made a comment on this that was around “Once you get enough money, you stop seeing it as money and more like a high score.”
Yeah, a lot of rich folks said it’s been about one-upping each other.
Mark Cuban was asked if he wants to increase his net worth. He responded that he’s busy managing the Dallas Maverick’s. But that interview seems to insinuate that there is an expectation amongst the wealthy to just keep accumulating wealth. Literally like a cancer that keeps growing.
And that folks is how I met your mother(capitalism).
