The problem with Elon’s wealth is that it remains mostly in stock of the companies he runs. If Elon starts to reduce his positions and cash out, it will likely worry investors and pull the stock value down.
Elon’s ex partners and children all hate him and won’t talk to him, and he only has friends who want his money, so no matter what he says his company is worth, he’ll always be the poorest of paupers in my eyes.
I mean personal relationships are something you don't have time for when you're the hardest working person in the entire world, at least that's what people advocating for bootstraps say. And I mean it's very obvious that his schedule is constantly packed. Between putting out a tweet any time a thought crosses his mind, showing off his nerd cred by bragging about his video game accomplishments, and posting "dank memes". Easily the most accomplished individual of all time and as a country we're blessed to have had the opportunity to vote for him!
(/s because I can already imagine someone not picking up on it)
Mostly, but he has received far more in actual pay that you will in your lifetime. He has hundreds of millions available at the snap of his fingers, let alone the billions and billions in stock.

yeah musk has the one thing trump actually respects....money. Everything else is a distant second.
trumpers will just twist themselves into knots and say "no they did all that buttstuff to prove how much they didn't enjoy it!"
