It’s baffling how becoming a billionaire changes someone. They don’t see the world like normal people do.

Imagine him spending the same money starting schools around the country. “Elon Musk school for the gifted” or something, get the best math / programming / etc students there to receive first rate education and then pick the best ones to work for your companies.

With that money he could fund a bunch of schools perpetually. And he’d be remembered for a long time as a philanthropist.

But nope, he’ll rather buy a DOGE leader position and then try to buy elections. And beg to get on Epstein Island

    It's hording, nobody becomes a billionaire by being nice or generous, You have to take from others.

    If you use your money to help others you wouldn't be a billionaire for long but the world around you would be a little bit better of a place in my opinion.
