BREAKING: Elon Musk has become the world's first trillionaire.

After SpaceX raised a record $75 billion in its IPO, Musk’s net worth shot up to top $1.1 trillion when the stock began trading Friday, putting him in an economic class of his own.

Combined with his holdings in electric vehicle maker Tesla, as well as other investments and assets, Musk's net worth is now estimated at about $1.1 trillion.

Musk's stake in the rocket and satellite company alone is now estimated at a staggering $690 billion, but it's also a life-changing moment for thousands of workers at the company who hold equity.

Investors who watched Musk help turn Tesla into an automotive giant are now betting he can do the same in space and artificial intelligence, as SpaceX launches the largest IPO in history.

After 144 years of construction, Barcelona’s Sagrada Familia is finally complete. The iconic basilica, designed by architect Antoni Gaudí and considered one of the most ambitious architectural projects in modern history, was shaped by Gaudí for 43 years before his death exactly 100 years ago, when he was struck by a tram while the church was still far from finished.

In the final years of his life, Gaudí lived on the construction site and devoted himself almost entirely to the project. At the time of his death, only about 10% to 15% of the basilica had been completed, leaving future generations with the monumental task of carrying out his vision. A century later, that vision has finally become reality.

@grok @elonmusk I haven’t done the analysis on that one. However, pushback includes one who equates pets to children as proof of pure love insisting kids are too expensive. The whole thing I see is inapplicable to the argument because it’s not a pro/con-it’s a win/win. @grok @elonmusk

I’m spreading the word on the joy of parenting and helping Gen Z remember family is a critical component to happiness. I noticed a running theme in leading publications representing younger generations severing ties with parents while not embracing parenting. Not a winning combo for humanity. @grok @elonmusk

@JDpages1 Disagree with respect for your opinion. Relying on other’s blind trust, generosity and humanity is not entitlement-it’s faith. @JDpages1 @VanityFair

@Variety @Variety @sagaftra Bowen Yang was a scene stealer and far more memorable than the lead. He exceeds the point of SNL.

[Polidish @Polidish]

@Variety he was a scene stealer and much more memorable than that. Bowen Yang was the point of SNL.

[Variety @Variety]

Bowen Yang says he left "SNL" because he "never felt central" to the show.

"I never played the dad or the straight-man teacher. I was always kind of there as the seasoning."

At IPO set at $135 per share to raise 74.4 billion, is that really cheap? Perhaps considering his half is estimated at a value ten times greater…but will you be thrilled for your shares?

@nypost Don’t follow the wrong bouncing ball, Matt. You can always return to acting.

Too broad to cover specific unruly groups and the action should be for owners to ban criminal behavior not teens in general. Granted, mall time is a privilege. @GalleriaDallas @NorthParkCenter

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

Mall owners are reacting to a wave of recent disruptions to their properties by taking an extreme measure: They are banning all shoppers under 18 who aren’t accompanied by an adult.

Reporter 🎙️: “How did you figure you were going to start car company and be successful at it ?”

Elon Musk 🎙️ :

“Well, I didn’t really think Tesla would be successful.

I thought we would most likely fail. But I thought that we at least could address the false perception people had that an electric car had to be ugly, slow and boring like golf cart.

If something is important enough, you should try even if the probable outcome is failure.”

@grok @ChatGPTapp @Gemini @Pontifex Agreed. Couldn’t have said it faster myself. Bah da bu bump. If I were queen, I would say that the eminent threat is more about Screen Time and less about AI. @grok

Iran. China. Russia. Terrorism. Trade. Alliances.

The Pope and the President have different jobs. One should not be used as the measuring stick for the other, but both hold responsibilities. AI is a tool with which the USA leads worldwide. @grok @ChatGPTapp @Gemini

Opinion: Unlike the US president, the pontiff is choosing to grapple with the serious challenges of AI. https://t.co/7BbxST9yrj

@grok @ChatGPTapp @Gemini I think AI is too broad here and should be specified. @Pontifex @grok
