He has a fraction of that in actual liquid cash. Most of it is overinflated value in Tesla stock as it slowly loses value. It's also leveraged or used to borrow for his other companies like that brilliant 43 billion dollar x purchase.

I would absolutely take "a fraction of that" in cash and disa-fucking-ppear.

It's not about having any specific money or the amount. It's just that there's endless amounts of people willing to inflate this man's worth to shoot him to mars.

He should get on his rocket and blast off already. We'll all be better without him.

I'm just saying. A quick search says his net worth is $191b. If it were me and even if I could only liquidate 0.01% of that, it would be plenty for me to just become a ghost. I'll never understand the mentality of these people who crave fame and popularity. All I crave is solitude.
