I hadn’t heard of the milestones fwiw. That makes more sense I guess, but it’s still an unbelievable amount of money to even conditionally give to someone.

I have zero doubt that the Tesla board spent a long time on that proposal balancing “We want the child to focus on our business instead of on the goth girl AI” and “We really don’t wanna give him a trillion dollars”.
The day they let BYD into the US is the day Tesla goes completely belly-up.

I’m not sure how much of Tesla’s stock price is based on any kind of actual fundamentals, and is entirely predicated on the Elon Musk as a mythologized figure. The valuation of the company compared to other US car manufacturers is just nonsense. At one point (perhaps even now), Tesla was worth more than several major manufacturers combined or something which was just delusional. The difference in technology between Tesla and domestic competitors is not accurately reflected by the market value gap.

For the people just tuning in, here’s what those ten-year goals look like:
The Breakdown
Tesla’s current Market Capitalization: $1.35 trillion
2024 Adjusted EBITDA: $16.64 billion
| Tranche | Goal | Existing Company Progress |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 20 million Tesla vehicles delivered | 7.2 million vehicles sold in total, selling about 1.75 million more per year. Definitely the most doable of the bunch. |
| 2 | 10 million active Full Self-Driving subscriptions | Not much public data on the matter, but estimates seem to be around 700,000 to a million current subscriptions. |
| 3 | 1 million bots delivered | Not a single bot has been actually manufactured and made. |
| 4 | 1 million Robotaxis in commercial operation | Not a single one’s been actually made outside of the one at the show. |
| 5 | $50 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters | |
| 6 | $80 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters | |
| 7 | $130 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters | |
| 8 | $210 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters | |
| 9 | $300 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters | |
| 10 | $400 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters | |
| 11 | $400 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters | |
| 12 | $400 billion Adjusted EBITDA, sustained for four quarters |
In addition, for each Tranche, he needs Tesla’s Market Capitalization to be at or above a certain level for six consecutive months:
| Tranches Completed | Required Market Capitalization |
|---|---|
| 1 | $2 trillion |
| 2 | $2.5 trillion |
| 3 | $3 trillion |
| 4 | $3.5 trillion |
| 5 | $4 trillion |
| 6 | $4.5 trillion |
| 7 | $5 trillion |
| 8 | $5.5 trillion |
| 9 | $6 trillion |
| 10 | $6.5 trillion |
| 11 | $7.5 trillion |
| 12 | $8.5 trillion |
In effect, say Tesla manages to get 10 million active FSD subscriptions tomorrow. Musk would only get that 1% once Tesla’s market capitalization hit $2 trillion and stayed there for six months.
All of this is to say that it’s a long shot.

The added sugar IS unhealthy for your teeth and weight cuz it adds extra kcals, but if it’s fructose sugar then it’s fine.
Excess salt aswell cuz it causes cardiovascular diseases, keep that hydration up.

the only thing that matters is eating a balance diet and not overeating or undereating
if ur diet only consisted of celery and cabbages cause you hear it’s super healthy you would be in deep trouble even though its a healthy food
you would also turn into a rabbit
