Everyone is entitled to their opinions. However, it is best to base them on carefully acquired knowledge, and not on mere hearsay from TeslaQ or some random Reddit thread.
Posting flame-bait making offensive comments, contravenes the code of conduct, and may result in sanctions.
This forum is a friendly place, where we expect discussions to be civil, even when people disagree.
Elon Musk may be very ambitious, but that does not make him greedy. He has worked very hard for decades to achieve what he has.

You have no idea where I got my info. I do not get my info from FoxNews and Qanon like you.

@locutusofborg No, I don't know where you get your information, but it is clearly not a reliable source. I cited TeslaQ and Reddit as typically unreliable sources.
I get my information from the experts on Tesla. Mainstream media in general are in the business of getting eye-balls on their content, or pleasing their advertisers, so I take whatever they say with a generous pinch of salt.
I would not know what goes on at Qanon, never having visited it.
You can see what my sources are from the links earlier in this thread. As a rule, it is good to quote your sources, especially when making damaging allegations.

FSD Beta 10.3 Released
New Features
Profiles, Autopark, Construction Zones, & More
- Profile allow users to select how assertive FSD is: from Chill, Average or Assertive

- Navigating a construction zone still dubious
First Impressions - Chuck Cook
Beta 10.3 Pulled
@elonmusk 7:44 pm · 24 Oct 2021
Seeing some issues with 10.3, so rolling back to 10.2 temporarily.
Please note, this is to be expected with beta software. It is impossible to test all hardware configs in all conditions with internal QA, hence public beta.
10.3.1 rolling out now

The facts are that Tesla is greedy. There is no getting around the facts.

Tesla to Mars :The facts are that Tesla is greedy.
Without any facts to back up your statement, it is just an empty assertion.
Tesla inc., is a business, not a charity, nor a not-for-profit organisation. Since demand for cars exceeds supply, they either have to increase prices or increase wait times. Second-hand Teslas are already selling for more than new ones.

Tesla Don't Need to Advertise
Hertz Car Rental are doing it for them.
Hertz said the “initial” order of a total of 100,000 Teslas will be made by the end of 2022.

I'll just leave this here:
**Elon Musk is attacking Biden over his proposed tax on billionaires
Tesla would not even exist today had it not been for a $465 million bailout from Obama
SpaceX got a $2.9 BILLION contract from the government to build a moon lander
That Musk is a self-made man is a total myth**

@locutusofborg Tesla paid off its loan earlier.
Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program loans that Tesla, Ford, Nissan, and Fisker were granted roughly a decade ago. Tesla, it should be realized, paid that loan off completely (+ interest) quite a while back — several years in advance of the payback deadline — which means that of all the auto manufacturers that utilized the program, Tesla was the first to pay off its loan completely.
Somewhat, but to a far lesser degree than the fossil fuel industry, to a far lesser degree than its bailed-out auto manufacturer competitors (GM/Chevy; Fiat Chrysler; etc.), to far lesser degree than those funding smear campaigns against it, and no more than pretty much any other large company out there right now.
SpaceX won the contract on the merits of its far superior bid.
Musk made millions as a young man from PayPal from his own ingenuity and hard work, investing it all in Tesla and SpaceX, which now provide tens of thousands of well-paid jobs.

@locutusofborg Musk will have to pay 53% capital gains tax on his stock options that must be exercised before January.

Analysts Upgrade Stock
Piper Sandler Sets New Highest Target for Tesla Stock. They cite the rapid growth in sales for Model 3 and Y, which far outstrips the so-called competition.
The stock closed today at $1,077.04, another new highest closing price ever.

Elon Musk Tweet
1 hour ago
Massachusetts has MIT
California has CIT
Texas has TITSElon Musk Proposes the Texas Institute of Technology & Science.
Given Elon’s disdain for University education, this is probably a troll, but perhaps he is pondering a way to offset some tax?

Tesla Opens Money Printing Machines in the Netherlands
Super-chargers are now open to owners of other EVs. If they pay €13 a month membership fee, they can charge at the same price as Tesla owners = €0.24 / kwh. Non-members pay €0.57. Only ten charger stations are currently equipped to support other EVs, but more will be added.
Musk Offers $6 Billion to WFP
The only caveat is that the World Food Program must come up with a plan to solve world hunger. Elon’s money is pretty safe. The WFP could not solve world hunger with $8.4 Billion in donations during 2020.
Tesla stock continues on its way to Mars, closing at $1,208.59 today. It is now 3x what it was a year ago.

Tesla to Mars :In my opinion going on planets to living is big wasting time and money
I agree with you. I think that plan is a non-starter, but mining of minerals on Mars could perhaps justify the huge costs. They don't need petroleum, they can generate methane and oxygen from solar power.
The real problem is that no human being could bear to live there for more than a year. Making it habitable will take centuries.
Perhaps you missed the true meaning of Tesla to Mars:

Tesla to Mars :Anyone who bought the stock at $408 on Monday just made about $100 a share in a couple of days.
- £2,208 invested in 7 shares on 16th November 2020 is currently worth £6,118.

Cathie Wood of ARK Invest
Talking about Growth Opportunties for Tesla.
The whole 50 minute interview with the Saxo Bank of Switzerland is worth watching. ARK Invest specialise in growth stocks, and have done in-depth study of the businesses in which their ETF Funds invest.
She talks about the moats that Tesla has, ensuring its supremacy in the EV marketplace. Other legacy automotive companies face huge barriers to enter the market, in which Tesla has an unassailable lead.
