You can start a FREE account and now they are giving $25.00 bucks to join. You can make up to $900.00 in shares by just sending out invites.

Fair.

Seems like easy money? No?
But you lose your job. No need for a board of directors of a private company. And probably most of management too. [Reply]

I certainly don't have a great feel for everything that goes into such a decision, but I have to imagine that someone who says, "I'm buying you out, but I'm immediately going to completely shut down the entire thing" would be told to go pound sand. Elon's not that extreme, but it seems pretty clear he's doing this because he wants to change some of the fundamental philosophies of Twitter. I'm just not sure how the board will handle it. [Reply]

54/share vs corporate raid I believe I’d have the conversation.
The boards fiduciary responsibility is to maximize returns for the shareholder, remember.
I’m guessing Musk knew it wouldn’t work but he was trying to shortcut the process of buying more shares to get a seat to force a sale.
They were saying on MNBC today that even though Elons offer was over the current share price it was still undervalued. They won't accept that. I for one hope he gets his hands on twitter just to change things back to free speech. [Reply]

I've historically been very pro-free speech. Then I went into the "Russia Invades Ukraine" thread in the DC forum and now I'm not so sure. [Reply]

I invest in solid companies with solid and steady growth, but keep on chasing meme stocks. :-) [Reply]
