Is Tesla Doomed? | Ep 002 Lemonade Stand

The only way you could justify a 50 lane highway is if the city was 50 times bigger, at which point the traffic is back. It doesn't even fix it. It does not fix it.

I can give a few more counterpoints to why Tesla has some potential legs to it. Why it has a real shot. And we can go back to that. So actually, it's a good segue. So the thinking, the reason that Tesla might, in quotes, be worth a hundred times what they're currently making a year, which is, again, an insane valuation.

I'm not saying I agree with this, but one such thing is if they hit driverless cars, if they manage to do this, their fleet instantly becomes obscenely valuable, right? If every person has a car that can drive them and they don't even need to be in the car, that is incredibly valuable. The amount of cars they can sell go up.

Right, and not everybody will. But if the pitch to most people who own cars is, hey, normally we think about car ownership as you drop $20,000, $30,000, $40,000 on a car, and then it immediately depreciates in value for the rest of its ownership. Or you buy a $20,000, $30,000 car. and it is going to actually generate money for you over the lifetime of the car.

You don't have to do that, but every day while you're asleep or while you're at work, you can send it out. It's generating $100 on the meantime, and it's just doing this for you every single day.

The argument here is if they pull this off, they have millions of owners of Teslas who can suddenly start adding their thing to the fleet.
