Here is that pesky 'risk' word that I have tried to infuse into your thought processes as you face the real world. I thought it appropriate, since y'all seem to not like anything about Musk genius and derring-do, and you eschew risk.
Libs do not believe in taking risks. Safety in numbers (eg mobs) is counterproductive to taking risks. Most successful people have taken risk.
Class dismissed.

Only a halfwit gambles with their own money Joe, his problem is he’s not half as clever as he, or his sycophants think he is.

You are right that a risk is a gamble, but not the luck-of-the-draw type of gamble,.... one researches his percentages on this risk. Then, takes a risk with his money. Why would you call a businessman, who takes a risk each day, a half-wit?
Can someone else answer this question... Kev will not.

Buying twitter, for a start.

Now, crawl back to your crusty bed and spank your monkey like the good little gimp you are.

Is there any plausible scenario in which musk's risk taking results in him not being a billionaire anymore? He's backed by billions in tax dollars alone.

Like, if you own 100 billion apple trees but you only need 100 to feed your family, then is it really risk taking to gamble on the other 99.999 billion trees?

Need more input. He has to consider the market , for instance. And what if he could corner the market? Then gamble/risk it all. .

You libs are a long time coming . When America sinks a bit lower, you will get the picture . I assure you , you will be too late.
