LeBron James: I want fans to understand that playing 82 games in the '80s and '90s is not the same as playing 82 games in the 2020s. It’s a totally different game now...

Thank you @nytimes for your honest and accurate reporting. We must fight against the extremist religion of the car in question that caused it to plow into the LBTQ parade. Cars are born peaceful. They are self-radicalized online but vehicle extremists.
Two years ago, I remember the nervous excitement to speak before thousands of people. This day would become one of the most unforgettable moments, Corey Comperatore, May we never forget July 13, 2024, and may we continue to honor the memory of a true American hero.
Elon Musk just became the world's first trillionaire.
The typical American household would have to work more than 11 MILLION years to make Elon Musk's level of wealth.
We need a wealth tax.
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.
