Those headlines always make it seem like a big deal, but I'll only allow myself some joy when I'll know for sure Elon Musk will be homeless. Times and times again I've seen headlines like this, where billionaires are losing billions, the stock market is crashing, it's never been this bad!!! But in the end, they eventually get those billion back and nothing changes.

I agree with you. Musk alao has a long history of manipulating Teslas stock prices up and down for his own eventual benefit.

He won't be homeless, but most of his 'wealth' is just the value of that stock. The lower it is, the less of a threat he is.
