YOU ARE LETTING THE GOVERNMENT TAKE 37% OF YOUR BITCOIN GAINS. LEGALLY. FOR NO REASON.
Sarah buys $50,000 in Bitcoin. It grows to $200,000. She sells.
The IRS takes $55,650.
She keeps $144,350.
Now watch what happens when she does it correctly.
Sarah buys $50,000 in Bitcoin inside a Solo 401(k). It grows to $200,000. She doesn't sell. She borrows $100,000 against it through a crypto-backed loan at 1% APR.
Tax paid: $0.
Bitcoin sold: 0.
Cash in hand: $100,000.
Bitcoin still growing: $200,000.
When she retires and her income drops, she converts portions to a Roth IRA at the lowest tax bracket. Withdrawals after 59.5 become tax-free. Forever.
The first Sarah paid $55,650 in taxes and lost her Bitcoin position permanently.
The second Sarah paid $0, kept her Bitcoin, borrowed against it, and set up tax-free withdrawals for life.
Same $50,000. Same Bitcoin. Two completely different financial outcomes.
The difference isn't income. It's structure.
The wealthy have used borrow-against-don't-sell strategies with real estate for decades. Bitcoin just became the best collateral asset in history. And Fannie Mae just started accepting it for mortgages.
The tax code didn't change. The asset menu did.
Stop selling. Start structuring.

@bschippers I’m at 97% FSD since migrating to v14, but it’s still annoying AF when the car takes a left turn while the nav is saying right, or turns down a freeway frontage road rather than taking the onramp? 🤷♂️

We've been tracking Tesla FSD across the real fleet for a while now. Real telemetry from many many vehicles. Adoption, driving quality, subscription economics, fleet miles -- the whole picture.
The cumulative FSD mileage is approaching a number that makes every other autonomous driving program on earth look like a science project. And there's a quality gap between FSD versions that's not incremental -- v14 is a fundamentally different product than v12. People aren't testing it anymore. They're using it as their default way to drive.
I'll be sharing more of what we're seeing this week and a lot more over the months to come. Our hope is to use real data to tell the real story.
The data paints a pretty clear picture. @TezLabApp @wholemars @DirtyTesLa @niccruzpatane

I can charge my @Tesla for the cost of one gallon of gas in the U.S. ⛽️🤯

@CernBasher Great work, @CernBasher. Commenters comparing this to Uber is like comparing apples to burritos. I have to commit 12 hours a day to maximizing my earnings with Uber. I’d only have to commit about 12 minutes a day tending to (each) of my Cybercabs. 🤓

@elonmusk You should ask GROK to analyze this to identify risks and rewards.

@DavidSacks She sounds like a KamalaGPT 0.25 model—cobbling phrases together.

@PicturesFoIder Well, I’m 53 years olds so I’d be lucky to bank $6M in weekly payments. So I would take the $4M today and buy 66 Bitcoin—change the trajectory of my family tree.

@SawyerMerritt You should be able to group-enable this feature if you pull up to a traffic light at night next to multiple cyber trucks. 🤯

I learned so much from this talk… especially the graph near the end. If you like this experiment of posting TED Talks directly on X, please share! We’re curious how they’ll be received here.

As an experiment, we're posting a short TED Talk directly here on X. If you like, please spread the word, and more will follow! This is the brilliant @LuisvonAhn showing how worthy content like Duolingo can compete online.

@elonmusk This live event crash was as thrilling as watching the Windows 95 operating system crash live on stage during its launch.

🚨When @ElonMusk took over Twitter he promised to reveal what happened in the censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story and other elements that could have affected the 2020 election.
Tonight he followed through.
Here’s a review of what we know so far from the #TwitterFiles:
