Elon Musk Giving 1,000,000 Every Day Until Election!
Uh, we are going to be awarding a million every day from now until the election. The world's richest man just chucking millions of dollars at people to register to vote. What did you think?
Well, again, for full transparency and disclosure, my son works at Tesla in California for Elon. Um, so, and I've met him a few times. You know, just some background on this: I don't believe it to be illegal. What he's basically saying is, I want to motivate people to go out and vote. He's not telling them who to vote for; he just wants them to think about being part of the democratic process.
Now, you know with certainty that Trump would like to get Elon Musk, should he win, into a role in the administration to seek efficiencies. There are different kinds of people in life that I've learned, investing in many managers and entrepreneurs and working for some of them. I would say there's the idea of signal and noise.
If you think I worked for Steve Jobs— not a very nice guy, but he was 90% signal during the day and 10% noise— noise being distractions that he would agree to be distracted by during the working day. His working day was 20 hours, and, um, he wasn't that social a guy. Look what he achieved.
Now, Musk— Elon Musk— I know with certainty is 100% signal. I have never met a man like that, and look what he's achieved; it's unprecedented. He would be a profound force if set free to go work on government to find inefficiencies, and I'd like to see that happen.
Does it make Trump a better administrator? Does it make his administration more powerful? 100%. We don't know how much Elon will be engaged, but you can't deny what this man's achieved. There's never been an entrepreneur like him.
