The Cybertruck is the most misunderstood vehicle on the planet.
People: “Elon promised a $40k truck.”
Cybertruck: “Do you even know what I’m packing?”
People: “Looks like a dumpster.”
Cybertruck: “123 kWh. That’s nine Powerwall 3s on wheels.”
People: “What’s a Powerwall?”
Cybertruck: A home battery most people can’t afford. Nine of them installed runs $100k–$130k.
People: “Wait… Elon sold these for $60k for like 10 days in February?”
Cybertruck: You snooze, you lose.
People: “So it’s just a giant battery?”
Cybertruck: Yes. And I can drive anywhere. Power a house for days. Climb off-road. Tow, haul, and run a jobsite from the bed.
Still think it’s just an ugly truck?
If you’re having a bad year, just remember:
Mark Zuckerberg wasted $73 billion on the Metaverse.
Tim Cook wasted $10 billion on the Apple Car.
Jeff Bezos lost $10 billion chasing Alexa.
Masayoshi Son lost $14B investing in WeWork and missed out on $150 billion by selling Nvidia early.
Cathie Wood dumped Nvidia right before ChatGPT launched and missed $1.2B
Logan Paul bought an NFT for $630,000 in 2021. Today, it's worth only $140.
Even the RICH and famous get it completely wrong sometimes.
