Tesla Proposes $1 Trillion CEO Payday: Billionaire Bingo Jackpot
In a move sure to make accountants everywhere spontaneously combust, Tesla's board chair defended a jaw-dropping $1 trillion compensation proposal for CEO Elon Musk, stretching across a wild 10-year timeline. Thatâs rightâ$1,000,000,000,000 over a decade, because apparently rockets to Mars and electric cars arenât expensive enough. The board assures this mega-package is justified, turning Musk's pay into a ludicrous lottery of billions that could fund multiple governmentsâor at least a small countryâs entire economy. Itâs the kind of news that makes you wonder if Teslaâs bonus calculator accidentally hit the infinity button. High stakes meets high finance irony meets, well, a trillion dollars.

If Elon Muskâs compensation was a car, it would be a Tesla Roadsterâexpensive, fast, and totally unreachable for most humans on planet Earth.
