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.

Congratulations to SpaceX on today’s $75B IPO, the largest ever brought to market.
Goldman Sachs is honored to have served as lead left bookrunner on this transaction, but more than that, we are proud of the strong partnership our people have built with the SpaceX team over the long term. I’ve known Elon for more than 15 years, as have several of my colleagues, and it’s been incredible to see his vision come to life and to work with Gwynne, Bret, and the entire team.
We are excited as SpaceX enters this new chapter of its journey as a public company, and we look forward to supporting their mission of advancing the frontier of human space exploration.
WOAH 🚨 House Oversight Committee finds there is a company is Florida called “Have My Baby in Miami”
It’s a birthright tourism company and just this one company has brought OVER 2,000 FOREIGNERS TO AMERICA TO GIVE BIRTH
“That's the name of an actual company that is facilitating birth tourism into the United States, where foreigners come in on visas, have children, then leave so that their children can remain American citizens”
Rep Brandon Gill “That's a problem. The American people are sick of it, and my task force on the House Oversight Committee is going after these companies”
I looked more into this
- It is a Miami-based maternity concierge service that specializes in helping foreign nationals travel to the US to give birth
- Their website and marketing explicitly target international clients especially from Latin America, Brazil and more
- They say they have assisted with over 2,000 international births in the U.S.
But it goes even further than that
Services include:
- obstetric and pediatric care
- logistical support for housing and transportation
- visas guidance
- delivery at facilities like Mercy Miami Hospital
- postpartum care.
This is a highly sophisticated operation, and it’s all to exploit our HORRIBLE birthright immigration loophole policy
The House Oversight Committee says they’ve found many of these companies
We won’t have a country if this continues
I am deeply grateful for the trust President Trump placed in me and for the opportunity to lead @ODNIgov for the last year and a half.
Unfortunately, I must submit my resignation, effective June 30, 2026. My husband, Abraham, has recently been diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer. He faces major challenges in the coming weeks and months. At this time, I must step away from public service to be by his side and fully support him through this battle.
