@WiseDad_Games@cremieuxrecueil The guy who created the OS like 1/2 of the world's computers run on and has given mountains of money to humanitarian causes, we can't survive that guy?
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.
Beterbiev is a tougher fight for Benavidez than Bivol. Bivol will look to absorb Benavidez' pressure, as he did with Beterbiev, and he won't be able to - too much volume. But Beterbiev will accept the firefight to some degree and has the power to hurt Benavidez.
@elmayimbe This person is such a slimeball. Blum took a huge financial risk and, had the film not made money, would have lost money, the art director got paid 7k for a few weeks of work and took no risk. I mean, what an ungrateful scumbag.
@TheLaurenChen The right needs to understand that it should not tolerate the retard right. This kind of stuff makes the right look bad. Any normal person reading this just thinks everyone on the right is a moron.
@Yeenie_Mcbeenie Didn't you leave out the part where the monkey invents several companies that create products the other monkeys want and that none of them created?
@mikerecine What she said is awful, but you people are worse and the fact that you see yourself as the good guys when this is what you would do to people is incredible.
