Nothing could possibly benefit that company as much as Elon Musk getting demotivated and no longer coming in to work.
I don’t think you understand just how upset he’s going to be if he doesn’t get 46 billion.
He’s almost definitely going to call someone a pedo again.
Tesla getting a new CEO is the only way Tesla is going to win back the demographics that Musk chased away acting like a dumb toddler.
ie: the people who care about climate change enough to spend $40-100K on EVs of mediocre build quality.
I suppose his maliciously designed Truck will convert a few bro-dozers who need a new truck to commute in, but I don’t think it’ll help Teslas bottom line.
Save $46 billion and have musk leave? Thats win-win if I’ve ever seen it.
If the stock wasn’t so overly valued based on Musk-lies I’d agree, but I think they’re in trouble either way.
Musk knows something unrelated that’s gonna bring down Teslas stock and this is how he’s gonna exploit it?
My money out on a major state banning the cyber truck after it Julians a pedestrian.
I know that a normal car with sharp protruding bodywork/rust holes, wouldn’t pass the safety inspection in at least the 2 New England states I’ve owned cars in.
I could see CA and the rest of the west coast banning their sales first, or requiring so much rework that they aren’t viable cars there.
Grab 5 of the top engineers, sales people, and marketing at the company, double their pay, and grant them a $1,000,000,000 bonus in 5 years time if they beat certain performance metrics. Have them sit on a board as coCEOs and watch true motivation. Kick out the guy that’s demanding 3 times your annual income as “motivational” compensation.
I remember when Bill Gates was the richest person on the planet with $45 billion total and it was covered in all the news. Things have gone more out of control than anyone could’ve imagined.
I will stay motivated for only $45 billion.
You cheap bastard…
You drive a hard bargain
I’ll do it for three point fiddy billion
I don’t even get out of bed for less than $2 billion.
How the hell can this not affect the morale of people working for this company? Even from a purely evil self-preservation standpoint that seems important to consider.
My company sold a part of our business, and I casually mentioned to our VP that it’s almost enough to buy everyone in the company a lamborghini. He didn’t seem to think that would be a good idea, but that stock buybacks and a big dividend would be…
can this not affect the morale of people working for this company?
Are you saying they WON’T give 46 billion to everybody who works for this company?
How scandalous!
Here’s the article; the link in the OP points to a discussion thread.
The chair ought to be questioning whether the company should continue to employ someone who needs that much “motivation”, not urging shareholders to give it to him.
That guy is probably getting pegged by musk for $1 billion per instance. It’s on his best interest musk has the money and needs to convince the board.
The chair is actually a woman.
He probably promised to knock her up.
Me too. I’ll go first, and if it works, he can do it as well.
This guy is a leech.

if he wasn’t motivated to not tank tesla’s stock by being a vocal fascist… i don’t think this would motivate him to do anything good either
Well, so do I. I’d be so god damned motivated for 46 billion.
You better be motivated. Being a CEO is super hard work plus your genius ideas are required to propel the company to record profits.
I can see! Man could you imagine spending a full twenty hours a week socializing with your peers, traveling, or (*gasp*) even exercising!? Why, I’d barely be able to hold it together for my daily hour long “Business meal”!
God knows I’d never be able to soldier through like Musk, constantly promising things like “Mars colony in two years” every year (among other things)while still having the time to spend hours posting “!!” “Concerning” or “XD XD XD” until 3 am on Twitter. Why I probably wouldn’t even have the time to signal boost white supremacists and post dog whistles about we need more babies to stave off “the great replacement”.
Put him on a Starship.
A submarine
