If @elonmusk had just left his $160 million Paypal payout in ...it would be worth $21 billion today (133x gain).
Instead, he bet literally every penny on:
• creating the 1st mass-manufacturing car company in the US in a century
• go to Mars
What a f**king legend.
*To be clear, PYPL IPO’d in 2002 and spun out of eBay in 2015.
So it wasn’t liquid stock during the entire span... speaking just to it’s valuation from $1.5B (eBay acquired) to $200B+ (today).
