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.
Then it went black, and my neighbor yelled if anyone had a camera. I grabbed my phone and when I started the video is when it lit back up. These videos don’t do it justice to what the naked eye can capture. What an amazing experience. #UFO#UAP#LosAngeles
Went for a night walk with my mom around 1am today Oct 9th and we saw a UFO/UAP. My neighbor was behind me and I yelled for her to come and look so we wouldn’t be the only ones who saw it and people wouldn’t think we were crazy… 😂😂😂 #UFO#UAP#LosAngeles
At first we thought it was a firework because it shot up into the sky from the Earth, until it turned into a big fireball and proceeded to change into multiple colors; orange, red, blue, purple, yellow..

@elonmusk@elonmusk and I’m also healing through heart issues & a stroke index. Got a lot going on but life doesn’t stop and bills need to be paid. Let me know if there’s any open opportunities for working in the background. I was running emails and large zoom events with this guy. Thank u
@elonmusk@elonmusk are you hiring? I’m “self employed” and the guy I was working for fired me. He accused me of doing something I never even did and posting on my socials. I can’t go after him since I’m 1099. My mom is healing through Parkinson’s and I take care of her all on my own.
Live tomorrow w/ my friend & Holistic Health Coach @giovanotero! He was on the brink of death & he changed his life by energy healing, changing his lifestyle & his relationship w/ food. Get ready for the healing vibes ✨💙 ☕️
