    It’s not a car company you goof, you and your client are both peppegas. Tesla is more than a car company with AI and software and battery technology.

    As a Tesla shareholder, listening to this lawyer try to justify his position makes my blood boil. Shame on him!

      Which will probably be a good thing. He’s a loose cannon.

    He said a bunch of nothing, except what was specially left out or lied about?

    This is a lot of horse hockey twisted to meet a predetermined decision.

    It’s so good to listen to an experienced, ethical professional from time to time, in the middle of all the *$&#ing insanity of this moment in history. God, what a sick, twisted reality we live in now….

    lol. The judge was out to lunch

    F Varallo and his client and the judge. How can people who have done NOTHING to advance this business determine how much the leader gets compensated. The shareholders agreed to this package. Take it to the shareholders again and you will get the same or higher results. Musk & Tesla hit their targets MASTERFULLY. He earned this. There are few geniuses who evolve the species. Hack lawyers are everywhere on the planet. Useless turds like this lawyer cripple the species.

    He built the company. He should get whatever he wants.

    Elon achieved the crazy growth & milestones that was in the agreement by sleeping in the factory & working 18hr days & now he’s not going to get rewarded…talk about bs & i think this is a setup because the liberals hate that he bought twitter & allowed free speech…

  14. @an-opinion

    January 31, 2024 at 8:04 pm

    He will move to Texas & we (as shareholders) will give him 25%…this old man can eat his candy sitting & doing nothing in life.

    Just appalling what country do we live in? So because it is B-ILLIONS that is a bad thing?? Shareholders knew what they were voting stop the bullshit. Moreover, I’m confident they will vote again to approve ANY package that is set forth. WE ARE NOT DUMB AND KNOW EXAXTLY WHY THIS RULING WAS HANDED DOWN. YOUR RUINING THE COUNTRY!!!

    How can you group Elon, one of the greatest value creators ever, with anyone?

    • @edu2857

      January 31, 2024 at 8:07 pm

      “This is a car company”….this guy is ridiculous! He does not determine that. Stay in your lane!

    55 Billion is maybe outsized. But if he didn’t meet a laundry list of seemingly impossible goals to be met. He met them all early. Had he missed a single one, he would have got nothing. He sure as hell earned that package. Compared to the value he brought shareholders, 55B is chump change. Next package will be even bigger. After they move to another state.

    • @thewolfdoctor761

      January 31, 2024 at 8:14 pm

      The goals were NOT seemingly impossible.

    These mofo lawyers better not make more than few thousand dollars.

    Pertinent question is how much this pos lawyer and his firm will make?

    5 YEARS IN CORT ? WAS THE JUDGE IN JAMACA , SMOKING POT WITH jiusten ? IS 5 YEARS , JUSTICE DENIED ?

  21. @SueMaha21

    January 31, 2024 at 8:23 pm

    There is no Tesla without Elon Musk. He deserves 55 billion and more.

    IF YOU CANT UNDERSTAND THE ISSUE BEING VOTED ON , INVEST IN ANY OTHER STOCK !

    January 31, 2024 at 8:27 pm

    THIS LAWER IS CHALLENGED WITH THE SUBTLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN [ M MILLION ] AND [ B BILLION ] ? IS IT POSSIBLE HE MIGHT LACK CREDABILITY ?

    Musk is not a founder of Tesla… such garbage keeps being repeated out there. He founded starlink, yes, and early INVESTOR in Tesla. But NOT a founder, that’s sort of a pretty basic fact…
