“Underestimating Elon is not a good idea,” Bill Gates said on Kara Swisher’s podcast the other day. But really, at this point, who is underestimating Elon Musk? The man is everywhere, influencing everything (or trying to). In addition to hyping his own companies, he’s chiming in on cryptocurrency and “Gamestonk,” interrogating the CEO of Robinhood (and putting Clubhouse on the map in the process), separately inviting both Kanye West and Vladimir Putin for another Clubhouse appearance, and even slamming the operator of Texas’ power grid. And that’s just the past couple of weeks.
It’s tempting to believe that we have reached peak Musk. But I’m not convinced: To the contrary, Musk’s status as the business world’s most ridiculous and yet somehow most effective influencer is only solidifying. If anything, he’s increasingly transcending the business world, having become a cross between a public figure, a pop culture stalwart, and a living, breathing subreddit.
That last bit is crucial: Musk has a better command of social media — and online culture in general — than any actual social media company CEO. Sometimes this is calculated (particularly when it comes to hyping Tesla), sometimes it seems like pure, uncut id (the shameful “pedo guy” attack on the caver who helped rescue those Thai children in 2018), and sometimes it feels like mere trolling.

As soon as I graduated college and started my first job, I opened one credit card. At the time, my decision was mostly to get points on my purchases, but it ended up being one of the most beneficial financial decisions I made.
One of the most important factors in your credit score is the length of your credit history. I now have almost 10 years of credit history to help me apply for mortgages and get lower interest rates, which could save me tens of thousands of dollars in a lifetime.
If you are organized and can keep track of multiple accounts, what the reward rates are, and remember to pay them off each month — great! I’ve heard of people writing on the cards what categories to use them on with the highest cashback return. I keep track of all of that information in my head and use whatever card will give me the most in rewards.
However, not everyone is that organized. If you fall into that category, open one credit card, set up automatic payments, make one small purchase every month, and pay it off to build your credit history.
When I started in the workforce, I didn’t understand investing or how much I needed to save for retirement (Spoiler: No one really knows how much they will need for retirement.)
I did understand that my employer offered a 401k match and that you should contribute at least as much as the match. It’s free money.
Those few years that I saved for retirement but didn’t quite understand what I was doing added $50,000 to my retirement portfolio. With 30 more years to grow, that’s a substantial addition to my retirement income.

Owing to the inadequacy of the social safety net in the United States and other developed countries, proposals for a universal basic income (UBI) are gaining in popularity. The gap between the rich and everyone else has expanded significantly in recent years, and many fear that automation and globalization will widen it further.
To be sure, if the only choice were between mass impoverishment and a UBI, a UBI would be preferable.
Such a program would allow people to spend their money on whatever they value most. It would create a broad sense of ownership and a new constituency to shake up the system of big-money politics. Studies of conditional cash-transfer programs in developing economies have found that such policies can empower women and other marginalized groups.But UBI is a flawed idea, not least because it would be prohibitively expensive unless accompanied by deep cuts to the rest of the safety net. In the U.S. (population: 327 million), a UBI of just $1,000 per month would cost around $4 trillion per year, which is close to the entire federal budget in 2018.
Without major cost savings, federal tax revenue would have to be doubled, which would impose massive distortionary costs on the economy. And, no, a permanent UBI could not be financed with government debt or newly printed currency.
Sacrificing all other social programs for the sake of a UBI is a terrible idea.

Everybody that starts a company does so because they want to make a living on that. They want to make money so they can pay for the things they want. To make a company grow, they will probably have to hire employees. They cannot do everything by themselves. And to hire employees, they will need to pay for them.
A typical picture in everybody’s heads is that the boss is supposed to be the person that makes most of the money in a company. We are used to seeing employees complaining about money when the boss is driving a fancy car. That is how capitalism is supposed to be, right?
After my company became profitable, I had a cousin that was starting a business. He was shocked that I was paying more to my employees than myself. He wanted to make a lot of money for himself but wasn’t willing to invest in other people. His company never grew, and he had to close it.
For many, capitalism is the land of greedy entrepreneurs and exploiters. The capitalists’ main occupation is to take advantage of the needy in an attempt to maximize profits without any kind of ethical scruple, destroying human beings and the environment in the process.
“Entrepreneurs are not to be trusted. They are explorers who take advantage of employees and customers.” This conclusion is false, which also creates confusion about the source of the profit. Certain individuals think that profit comes from exploiting the weak. In fact, it comes from the provision of strength.
I did an 18-months internship in a gaming startup while I was doing college. It was the founder and three interns working on it. I barely was experienced, and all of a sudden, I had a lot of responsibilities. For me, it was an excellent experience as I had the opportunity to learn many different things. Unfortunately, the startup never succeed.
