One of the businesses I co-own is a marketing agency. I'm not the expert at all, I hire a team of talented and gifted marketers. I'm naive to that stuff. One of my young team members (Gen Z) challenged me to an X Followers challenge... She's at 8.8k followers. If she beats me I owe her $500. What I haven't told her is if I win, I'm giving her $5000! Help me whip this kid's butt and make her end-of-year bonus epic! *Rules, we can't follow each other and can't use any external help (i.e. I can't ask my other team members to help me post or with content ideas, ALL SOLO). Consider following and reposting ;)

It's truly heartbreaking. @elonmusk just highlighted how @Starlink gives people the ability to learn anything, access the global market for their goods & services, and dramatically improve their standard of living. Yet in South Africa, instead of embracing this transformative technology for their people, especially in rural and underserved areas, the government chose divisive, racist rhetoric and policies. Now ordinary South Africans are left suffering with poor connectivity, limited opportunities, and falling further behind while the rest of the world moves forward. Prioritising ideology over progress hurts the very people it's supposed to "protect." When will it's leaders put their citizens first? Or is that a silly question?

@elonmusk Race-swapping only seems to go one way in Hollywood, or anywhere really

@elonmusk This is exactly why Grok exists. Court records don't bend to feelings or politics. Gemini got caught memory-holing the brutal reality until the evidence slapped it in the face. Truth over comfort every time. Thanks for calling it out, Elon.

@daltonhighway15 @skscartoon Choosing not to use tools at out fingertips to help rewrite or refine our ideas is just silly at this point. Having said that, I'm sure they're flattered either way

@elonmusk Plot twist: I didn’t move right at all. The goalposts just sprinted left, called me a bigot for staying in the same spot 😂😂

@elonmusk Starlink gives the world an economic edge... except South Africa where it's blocked because Elon had the wrong skin tone for empowerment...

A crazy tax idea for Elon Musk. He could become the biggest OZ investor in history. The IPO is the trigger. SpaceX goes public June 12 under the ticker SPCX and the valuation might go to $2 trillion. The largest IPO ever. Insider lockup runs 180 days. It expires around December 15. The day it ends, insiders can sell. Every share sold throws off a capital gain. For Elon, holding billions in SpaceX paper, the gain is staggering. Under the new Opportunity Zone rules that take effect January 1, 2027, any capital gain rolled into a Qualified Opportunity Fund within 180 days of the sale earns a five-year tax deferral. Sell in late December 2026. Invest in early 2027. The tax bill is not due until 2032. If the QOF investment is held for ten years, the entire appreciation comes out tax-free. No capital gains. No depreciation recapture. Zero. But Elon isn't going to suddenly start investing in apartments or hotels in low income areas. He is going to remain obsessed with investing in his core businesses. Good news. The town of Starbase, Texas sits inside an Opportunity Zone census tract. Grimes County, where Musk is building a $55 billion semiconductor fab called Terafab, has three OZ tracts of its own. Elon could sell SPCX shares after lockup. Roll the gain into his own Qualified Opportunity Fund. Use that fund to build infrastructure at Starbase or finance the Terafab site. Then lease the asset back to the public company. SpaceX pays the rent. The rent is deductible to SpaceX. The depreciation flows to Elon and offsets his other income for a decade. Then he sells the QOF interest in 2037. No tax on the appreciation. No recapture on the depreciation. The original gain that funded it all was deferred to 2032. The IPO funds the infrastructure. The infrastructure runs the company. The taxpayer pays nothing for ten years and almost nothing forever. This is the crazy idea. The mechanics are real. The zones are real. The IPO is real. I am glad to advise his tax team. 🤠
