Ever wonder if they are short sellers, boost the stock price and sell at the top, it will be great entertainment watching how all this plays out through to the end of the yr, I do feel for the easily lead and those who had no say with their 401K, a price boosted by SiFi talk and not actual company profit figures can only remain high until the bubble bursts ..... and it's not like it's never happen before, eh ......

Sorry to disappoint, but this old man is doing just fine. You don't have to be a hater to make a living or pay for retirement.
Converted 401k over time into TSLA by taking losses on gold and a technology fund and moving all to TSLA stock About 10x capital gains value Read (still have) Musk biography Have 180,000 mi Tesla with FSD Sold all TSLA for a non-TESLA solar roof Capital gains canceled by the tax credit Lost confidence in Musk when he became distracted by his Twitter folly My obsession is reducing my operational expenses by efficiency and technology. Musk has no monopoly on that. So I have no problem buying when he offers a competitive, better deal. If being a cheapskate is an obsession, then that is me. Never forget I owned Prius 2005-2019 like many here until better came along. First a 2014 BMW i3-REx in 2016 and in 2919 traded in my last Prius, a Prime, for my 180,000 mi Tesla. So yes, I am obsessed with living cheap. Bob Wilson
Big difference between living cheap and wasting money. If you are paying electricity bills rather than generating your own power via solar, you are wasting money. If you by fuel rather than charging your EV from your own solar, you are wasting money. If you have no plans to live on the moon or Mars, or crunch huge numbers as part of your every day life, then why waste money investing in data centres, rockets and moon/Mars colonies. Better returns to be had making your household self sufficient, no more fuel bills or electricity bills is great way to start. T1 Terry
