So SpaceX opens at 150 vs the 135 expected. I think Elon has 40% of that?
I'm guessing he is making billions by the minute today. I was told Peter Thiel had 600M laying around and took a flier on SpaceX a while back, and was expected to improve that to 50B. Elon crushed trillionaire status today - just blew right through that level. Whew...thinking about these guys is akin to thinking about the universe for me. I can't even comprehend it.
