Back in the day, one million dollars sounded like world domination money.
Today, Elon is sitting at one trillion and making Dr. Evil look like he was asking for lunch money. 😂
Amazing! Congrats Elon!
🚨 Un empleado de SpaceX que ganaba $28/hora está a punto de hacerse millonario.
Y no es el único.
La IPO de SpaceX crea 4.400 nuevos millonarios en un solo día.
No son CEOs. No son fundadores.
Son ingenieros, soldadores y técnicos que mantuvieron sus acciones durante años.
La paciencia acaba de pagar.
ELON MUSK: If you’re reading this, SpaceX wants to take you to the Moon and Mars.
"We want to be able to take anyone who wants to go to the moon, anyone who wants to go to Mars or anywhere in the solar system, and maybe beyond the solar system. At some point, we want to be able to take you there, not just a few astronauts, I mean you, literally you.
Whoever you are, SpaceX wants to be able to take you to the moon, take you to Mars, and ultimately beyond, and I’m confident at this point that with the incredible team that we have here at SpaceX, that we will do that for you in a while."
Elon Musk has become the world’s first trillionaire as SpaceX becomes a publicly traded company.
Shares opened at $150, setting valuation at $1.96 trillion.
