ELON MUSK IS GOD

We were talking about Hitler and how old I was.

The “people’s car”.

If you examine the progression of models introduced - 1st sports car, 2nd high end ... then progressively less expensive more mundane offerings.....

Well, you come to appreciate as he scales up he is ultimately going to be in a position to do that “transportation appliance”.

He could network the “car-lets” into some ride sharing offering hosted by Tesla and take a skim with like zero fucking overhead and put a serious dent in Uber/Lyft

Just musing ... could I be wrong? Nah.

im not a fan of the taxi/ride share concept here because its a very intimate thing to spend 65k on what is essentially something adults buy for themselves as a gift more than anything else. plus the tech is a long way off.

but if it could generate say, $2000 a month whilst i rip blunts and play god of war over and over again, then suddenly it has my attention.

someone described tesla (obviously referring to the cars, not energy departments..) as a potential amazon of transportation, i think thats coge.

My point was the Tesla migration to inexpensive high volume offerings. Historically, this is how automakers become empires. Just saying.

The landscape is replete with beautiful high end offerings that were bought at auction by Fiat Volkswagen etc. for ex: Ferrari, Porsche, Bentley. I could go on all day. Economies wax and wane and the brands that rely on luxury offerings can’t weather the storm.

The folk who will purchase the little one motor appliance don’t care about vehicles. Like you, they are automotive heathens in my eyes but they exist. The automotive un-washed are the majority. Sell to them profitably and you win.

Vehicle sharing hosted by Tesla software with all the software genius and possibly driverless vehicle fetching. Good lord. It’s a never ending post sale gravy train.

Literally, every human can own a car for almost nothing.

i feel like trying to measure tesla using the traditional automotive yardsticks is a mistake.

its like trying to anticipate the failure of the iphone based on models from POTS / ma bell days.

there is a lot more to tesla than cars, and the cars that it make are literally like comparing iphones to this:

also, $412 a share at opening bell.

huge pullback so i increased my position 35% at 402.20.

A company buying back their stock at this point in the cycle is funny too

Deliveries begin in China for units manufactured in the Shanghai gigafactory today. Construction began in December of 2018.

He fucking did it, in 2019.

Quite a feat.

Plus, China's Ministry of Industry just gave them a 'made in China' tax exemption.

especially incredible considering he did it without the help of the 4 CFO's, 3 General Counselors, and 37 of his top engineers who have all quit in the last year

tony and tine must have been huge fans of enron and mci worldcom

when larry ellison dumps his 3,000,000 shares of tsla, ill be more concerned with willie's /r/tslaq spicy takes.

Still clinging to your bear thesis Will? That's cute. When TSLA gets to a $250b market cap will you still be singing the same sad song?

obviously will is much smarter than some random writer for forbes but for plebes like you and i and my 29% gains in the last like 90 days, its interesting reading.

Anyone ever do LEAPS...seems like a good stock whether you are bullish or bearish

tony & tine, i'll spell it out for you, AGAIN, cause it appears i have to

i don't care about the stock price, and i'm not an elon hater

i hope he accomplishes everything he's set out to, but if you think tesla's books aren't cooked, well, you are 10x more delusional than anyone at /tslaq

ok thats wild because the sec just went over those books and didnt stop scouring his life until they interviewed the rapper who crashed at his house one weekend to record with his girlfriend and to the best of my knowledge found exactly fuckall beyond a few halfbaked stoner jokes on twitter.

so i guess ultimately i owe you an apology; youre clearly smarter than me, tony, our 28% profits, a writer at forbes, and the justice department AND sec, who have placed not one but two independent directors on the board to ferret out the filthy corruption that no one appears able to find but you.
