No, you're exactly right.

This is the most valuable human being in terms of market cap in history.

It's all funny.

When CEOs retire unexpectedly, the market votes in a second.

Sometimes the market goes down.

Oh, he was awesome.

Damn.

And sometimes the market pops, which is really damning way to end your career.

The market hated you and wish you were gone.

I can tell you, I can't predict a lot of things about Elon, but I can predict one thing.

If he were to say, I'm retiring tomorrow and moving to another, that stock would only go one way and it would not be up.

We don't care.

Middle-aged white guy trades his job and what a middle-aged white guy no one gives a shit.

Exactly.

So I'm coming back to your conclusion, Harry.

You're right.

He is the most valuable market cap human being on the planet.

And it's not because...

He is amazing, but it's also because the market has given a premium to... It's like if Buffett was trading a 10x book, not 2x book, because they thought Warren could keep making it go up, and then he stopped.

I'm fine with him saying that statement, which is different than believing it.
