Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day.
400 of them are now worth over $100 million.
These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries.
Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000.
Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous."
The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before.
Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.
Last week, I filed to run for Sheriff in Teton County, Wyoming.
I'm running to offer a Republican choice for Teton County, focused on:
1. Immigration enforcement - to uphold immigration laws, honor valid detainers, and protect the safety of Teton County residents.
2. Drug enforcement - to target the criminal activity that threatens families, young people, and community safety.
3. Child & youth safety - a core responsibility of a safe and healthy community, because the future depends on the next generation growing up here.
4. Community engagement - through proactive communication, active listening and consistent engagement with the community.
5. Law enforcement housing - targeted housing solutions that help more patrol deputies live in the community they serve.
I believe the Sheriffโs Office should remain focused on public safety, professional law enforcement, and service to the people of Teton County.
It's where my wife and I are raising our family, and we're deeply invested in its future.

-Middle powers are rising
-The system is fragmenting
The real question isnโt who wins.
Itโs who is positioning for what comes next.
