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.
My dad is driving to DC for the first time since my mom died in Jan and he hit a deer. He called @AAA_Travel for help and a tow & they asked to speak to my mother. He informed them she just died & they said he can’t use the policy then & left a 70 year old grieving man stranded

My information consumption is now 1/4 X, 1/4 podcast interviews of the smartest practitioners, 1/4 talking to the leading AI models, and 1/4 reading old books. The opportunity cost of anything else is far too high, and rising daily.
NEW🚨: Man out walking his dog stumbles on a suitcase with human remains inside. Turns out two bodies—two young girls, sources say—found in separate suitcases, partially buried near Ginn Academy in Cleveland's South Collinwood. Homicide detectives on it.
Cleveland PD says “no indication of an ongoing threat to public safety.” Really? Two kids disposed like trash in our neighborhoods, and we're supposed to feel safe?

Time matters.
Heavy social media users visibly decline 1-2 points in attractiveness i.e. 7 to a 5.
This is a real, quantifiable biological effect from the health tax created by social media. I saw the 10% tax in my biomarkers from a 40 hr fast (consistent with broader evidence).
Evidence suggests a 25% tax would reveal itself with a 30 day social media fast.
The social media tax creates dull skin and eyes, causes weight gain, facial symmetry deteriorates and fatigue as the aura.
Heavy users are downgrade their intelligence, experience more relationship dysfunction, and age faster.
