How is he worth $22B, and one of the richest people alive?

-Most experienced marketer in the SV.
-Knew how to maximise SEO and free advertising from paypal days.
-He put a lot of resources into his social media presence. Like, a lot. This gave him power to create companies that could get a large market share.
-Value of any business is the sum of all future revenue discounted to take into account of time value of money.
-More market share, more money.
-free advertising.
that's how!

>>	Anonymous Wed May 13 00:34:28 2020 No.19055033 >>19054116 He's just a narcissistic jackass with a god complex. That being said he's also kind of a failure despite being a decent businessman that got lucky a couple times, but he will end up crashing and burning sooner or later.

he barely even used social media until a few years ago and i think most would argue all of his social media shit actually hurts the companies instead of helping them. ask anyone who had tesla calls when he posted about the stock price being too high last week.
