The most addictive thing I ever started. Been off them for one week.

The secret is don’t have one in the morning or your brain is chasing the effects all day after that.

It also torches your nervous system into overdrive if doing them all day long. Started having crazy anxiety and quit cold turkey, felt normal within 48 hours.

Crazy stuff!!

Ro, you’re lying and you know it.

You compared a man’s net worth to a country’s GDP. A balance sheet to a year of output. You went to Yale. You learned the difference between a stock and annual output flow.

But being a politician and lawyer, you love to lie and gaslight the economic illiterates, it’s your entire business model.

You want a 5% tax on Elon to fund free trade school for every American.

Trade school costs $80B/yr, you can’t even fund a year.

Elon doesn’t have $55B in cash. It’s stock. You know this.

To pay, he sells roughly $70B of Tesla and SpaceX shares, and the sale itself gets taxed on top. SpaceX raised $75B at its IPO this morning at a $1.77 trillion valuation.

Imagine him selling that amount every year.

Ro isn’t taxing Elon. He’s taxing everyone who gas exposure to the market. Every pension fund and index fund on the planet gets wrecked. And given Ro, he’ll insider trade and short before the bill passes.

And for what? To rip capital from the best allocator alive and hand it to the most incompetent institution in human history. Elon turned PayPal gains into Tesla and SpaceX: 120,000 jobs, launch costs down 90%, two industries that didn’t exist, a $1.77 trillion company from nothing.

You’ve never built anything. You’ve never employed anyone. You’ve never created a dollar of value in your life. You collect a government salary and demand tribute from men who do what you can’t.

Your machine spends $7 trillion a year and still runs a $1.8 trillion deficit. It loses up to $521 billion a year to fraud. More than your entire tax raises. The Department of Education went from $34 billion in 2000 to $268 billion in 2024. 8x the money. Reading scores at multi-decade lows. Trade schools still unfunded.

You don’t lack money. You lack competence, and you want Elon to subsidize it.

You haven’t donated your wealth. You haven’t moved into government housing. Empty your accounts first, Ro. Then preach.

Elon’s options get taxed as ordinary income at the top rate when exercised. Over $500 billion in lifetime taxes, the largest tax stream from one human ever. You want $55 billion now in a way that craters the shares the $500 billion depends on. Your tax doesn’t raise money. It kills the companies, kills the jobs, kills the pensions, and torches a bigger check already in the mail.

You’re the monkey in the middle, Ro. You can’t build. You can’t allocate. You can’t even count. So you eat from everyone else’s pie and call it fairness.

@buggirl In humanity, we use to celebrate those who achieved great success.

Now we act like monkeys and throw verbal poop at each other.

THE NEXT TIME YOU FEEL LIKE GIVING UP, REMEMBER THIS PHOTO OF ELON MUSK.

IT WAS TAKEN AFTER HIS THIRD ROCKET EXPLODED.

HE HAD JUST LOST $100 MILLION OF HIS OWN MONEY. SPACEX WAS WEEKS AWAY FROM BANKRUPTCY. TESLA WAS STRUGGLING. HE WAS SLEEPING ON FRIENDS’ COUCHES.

THE MEDIA CALLED HIM RECKLESS. INVESTORS PULLED BACK. EVERYONE TOLD HIM TO QUIT.

INSTEAD, HE BET EVERYTHING ON ONE FINAL LAUNCH. IF IT FAILED, SPACEX WAS DONE.

THE LAUNCH SUCCEEDED — AND CHANGED HISTORY.

TODAY, SPACEX IS WORTH OVER $1 TRILLION AND DOMINATES THE PRIVATE SPACE INDUSTRY.

MOST PEOPLE QUIT RIGHT BEFORE THEIR BREAKTHROUGH.

ELON KEPT GOING WHEN EVERYTHING WAS AGAINST HIM.

THAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUCCESS AND ALMOST SUCCESS.

[CHRIS T. @SMCEO2005]

You literally have been arguing with strangers on this silly app the entire day mandating that business owners owe you something.

Did you work today? Did you do anything today to better yourself or improve your future? Look in the mirror dude, the billionaires aren’t stopping you from being successful …you are.

I made two comments early this morning in the span of 10 minutes and then went to work… Very productive day, lots of great things happened. I pushed my company forward.

You spent your entire day feeling like you were owed something while I went out and made something happen. See the difference?

[CHRIS T. @SMCEO2005]

@bellaadinnda I don’t kiss ass. But I did start a company from scratch and did all four of those jobs simultaneously before any profits rolled in for years.

Stop feeling like a victim all day long and go control your own destiny.

[CHRIS T. @SMCEO2005]

@bellaadinnda Your missing the part where the owner risked everything to start a company and took years to build something profitable.

@elonmusk love the X platform…anything in development to flag the incredible amount of fake news constantly showing up as fact?

@Neo__Hq @Cobratate If you cannot tell the difference, stick to something less complicated, like water.

My father was a Special Forces operator with two tours in Vietnam and 20 years of service. To all those like my father, we all say thank you for your sacrifices. Without them we wouldn’t have the greatest country on Earth.

Great job Will! If you guys need any guidance on accommodations while staying over at Innisbrook, let me know… I know the lodging here can be problematic. The neighborhood that backs up to the resort may have opportunities for rentals, makes it easier to travel to the course in the morning.
