I'm utterly impressed by this new version of the classic pyramid scheme. Just keep making new companies by showing investors you were successful before so they should pony up all $ and only own say, 30% of the company. And then he has one of his older companies buy one of the newer companies, giving the newer company a "valuation" of some ridiculous amount of money the market would never actually give it, which will of course be an all stock deal with no cash so it doesn't actually cost him anything, in fact he gains more control of both companies! And this is a "deal" he can do at will since he owns both fucking companies. This gives the impression of yet more success because hey it was "worth" all that money right?
And now he's trying to put out to yet more investors his ultra mega unified company in an IPO, totally worth trillions of dollars because that's the new number someone managed to teach him. And in order to make it appear to have value he'll just buy yet another company! Most likely he'll buy this new company (companies?) with, an all SpaceX stock deal, which of course they should accept because after all, SpaceX is a company worth trillions of dollars!
