  3. To be fair to the board, no one knew the it would become a meme stock when they gave him those stock options and the given reason was at the time Tesla was not profitable.

  5. There are some systemic flaws with paying with stock options though. It's the reason Buffet never paid anyone with them, it creates wildly unequal pay for men who might just be working next to each other, but even might have the same job.

  6. It was a class action, and since when is reducing exec pay a bad thing. Musk is still very rich

  7. The investors got 2/3 of their money back. They usually do

  18. According to the late Charlie Munger and Warren Buffet, the reason they never do compensation consultants is because the fool getting a quarter million a year from the company will never be independent.

  27. Fair enough. It sounds weird the class that filed an overcompensation lawsuit agreed to such a commission on a huge case.

  28. Like you'd know. He did invent the gigapress

  29. There's nothing in here that says he doesn't like him

  30. Elon doesn't know either. Due to the last few years of state politics in Texas, it's stereotyped as everything lefties hate.

  31. Lying about judges can and will get you jailed for contempt

  32. Also, Musk isn't GOP

  33. If failure to damn is an offense, I'm affraid you have outed yourself as A) Greedy, B) A liar, and C) willfully ignorant

  37. Texas isn't necessarily more business friendly than a long list of non-Union states. Some state governments simply can't be bothered to make elaborate corporate laws. However, according to socialists on Twitter, Texas is evil capitalists incapable of having consumer protections.

  38. Other shareholders got the bulk of the money

  39. Probably a law student's life savings, and it was a class action. And lying about a judge can get to jailed for contempt

  41. Elon is not a righty. He created Tesla to fix climate change remember?

  42. Since when is paltry pay essential? Just give him some shares, that essentially makes him paid on commission @krellin

  43. No... It was fully disclosed but investors ignored it when the stock was going up

  50. @postmodernmining  no it fucking isn't. Amazon was paying people as low as shift managers with options but that was considered odd and they stopped when they pivoted to profitability. And condescending makes me dead sure you've never had experience in the matter
