Musk had to borrow around $13 billion for his doomed $44 billion acquisition.
Had he spent that $57 $44 billion on developing space hardware instead of going insane and squandering it on social media bullshit, he might have done something worthwhile. I mean… fifty seven billion! What even is that much money? He could have had his own space station for that much money! He could fly up there for weekends, just for funzies.
You’ve bamboozled my attempt to make the same joke at your expense by only mentioning one number in your comment, giving me nothing to add to it. From this point on, I conclude we should only ever mention one number in each comment, for clarity.
That’s why I used the word “capital” instead of “money”, but I had a feeling someone still was going to deliberately misunderstand me to try to sound smart.
Ugh… it drives me nuts!

He spent $31 billion of his own capital, and borrowed $13 billion to cover the rest.
Oh great, I added all the numbers in your comment together and now it’s $101 billion?? When will this madness end???

“own capital” probably more like stocks from Tesla, I doubt any actual money moved

Well now that you mention it I agree and feel dumb.
Anyways, I’m still right so it means I can double down.
