Twitter says it's being acquired by Elon Musk

Пацан сказал. Пацан сделал.

He did what he said…Lol

Musk wanted the money to actually reach entities that could really and truly work to make things better. UNICEF was all about using the money to further line the pockets of their bureaucrats and funding programs that did nothing to feed anyone. He called it out for what it was...but hey...your headlines and inaccurate sound bites make for great red meat for the frothy "super woke" base, so keep going with that and leave all those pesky facts out of it.

You have a valid argument until you unnecessarily go to extremes to make your point. UNICEF and other UN bodies meet a need and answer to many governments. As a consequence, their bureaucracy is gigantic and far less efficient than other organizations, public and private, or even some corporations. But they do provide assistance, often when no one is. Furthermore, country reps gain experience in managing programs, learning negotiations, etc. and become acquainted with international relations. Everyone gains from familiarity with future high level officials of smaller and mid sized developing nations.

Thats because the SEC stands for Suck Elon's C*ck.

the SEC are a bunch of spineless monkeys.

Elon should be in jail for market manipulation.

Does Elon ownership of Twitter mean that he will be able to continually pump false and misleading statements about Tesla without restraint.

...YESSSS It DOES

I dunno, but I think Elon has thought this out and he's ten steps ahead of everyone. He's gonna get it going, redo the entire model with regards to monetization, and then take it public again. He'll make money off of the deal. Morgan Stanley knows this too, pretty sure he had to let them in on his plan. My guess is the ad revenue as it exists now, but there will be no more free Twitter for at least 30% of that 200MM # above.

Welp, there ya go.
Elon just announced his plan... and that's to rework it to profitability and take it public again.
Lucky guess.

Did you think there was a chance he was going to keep it private for the medium or long term?

After going public he will want to keep super voting rights like Zuckerberg, own way less than 50% of the company but still have more than 50% of the voting rights.

I think Zuckerberg owns around 10% of facebook but has 55% of the voting rights.

If I'd have thought that, I'd have written that.
Odds are the next announcement he'll make will concur with my post too.
He'll announce a tiered pricing structure.
That's what I'd do.
