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.

The Germans are revering Taco Bell.
The Swedes are dumbfounded by ranch.

@Davidthehof@PiotrMaciejczak Don't feel bad, i dropped a mirror my second day playing over 10 years ago and when I asked global about it they said to mirror a white item. When I posted the mirror white sword in global they lost their minds LOL
@NickAllmaier Well shoot, that would almost be worse. It's at least nice to know that the other person has no clue what they want at the outset, but mudding waters like that makes it even harder.
