It’s easy to forget just how much money a billion dollars is, let alone hundreds of billions.
You could hire three hundred people at a very generous salary of $250k/year. 8 hour shifts, that gives you 100 people guarding you 24/7. That would $75 million/year. You could do that off the investment income from a single billion dollars. Pay them the salary more typical of a security guard, like $50k/year, and Musk could be surrounding 24/7 by one hundred thousand security guards, and it would cost him $15 billion/year. He has enough wealth to afford that if he really wanted to. The man could take a cue from ancient Rome and commission his own army if he wanted to.
We need to eliminate billionaires. No one should have this type of power.

He also wouldn’t even pay that and syphon money from his companies as business expense either way.
