What makes you think he knows anything apart from financial engineering and ferreting out taxpayer subsidies with fake visions of the future? Ya boy massively overpays for a social media company just as the tech bubble implodes - I'll admit it does take the focus off his numerous other failures though. (FSD, Cybertruck, Semi, Roadster 2.0, Solar Tiles, AI chips, AI robots, Robotaxis, Hyperloop, Starlink profitability, Solarcity etc etc)

You're probably right.
The thing is that I've developed and allergy for the 'tards.
They used to mildly irritate me, but that irritation is since grown to a severe full-blown allergy.

I tried the foreskin facial treatment – so you don't have to

The treatment is supposed to reduce wrinkles by using skin cells from a baby’s foreskin. Would it work for me?

No.

Yes.

Now.
Do you understand what I said.
You did not strike me as someone that would battle to understand something as simple as that.
But maybe I was wrong about that.

Not for Profit: Definitions and What It Means for Taxes

Not for profit refers to a type of organization or enterprise that does not earn profits for its owners.

Or

State-owned enterprise - Wikipedia

So now you'll want to change your statement because, hey you meant Twitter.
But your original statement as is, is still incorrect right?


So now more examples ...

You understand conglomerates right? A company like Amazon, Old Mutual, Sanlam, Samsung may own many 100's other businesses PTY LTD's and listed companies.

So a few quotes from the Amazon link from earlier. Since I had it handy and I actually read it.

Amazon is a bundle - it’s hundreds of separate businesses, all running on the same common internal platforms.

It seems pretty likely that these businesses, selling very different products bought with different bargaining positions to different people with different shipping costs, have different margin potential.

This still doesn’t really give an accurate picture, though. Amazon is in fact organized not just in these segments, but in dozens and dozens of separate teams, each with their own internal P&L and a high degree of autonomy. So, say, shoes in Germany, electronics in France or makeup in the USA are all different teams. Each of these businesses, incidentally, sets its own prices. Meanwhile, all of these businesses are at different stages of maturity. Some are relatively old, and well established, and growing slower, and are profitable. Others are new startups building their business and losing money as they do so, like any other new business. Some are very profitable, and some sell at cost or at as loss-leaders to drive traffic and loyalty to the site. Books are a good example. There’s a widespread perception that Amazon sells books at a loss, but the average sales price actually seems to be very close to physical retailers - it discounts some books, but not all, and despite all the argument in the Agency lawsuits, quite how many and how much is (deliberately) as clear as mud.

Amazon is a bundle.

So here we can see that you have business that are not profitable, but can contribute something or may in future contibute something.

So your statement is again incorrect.


Another one for you, but I will let you use some imagination.

Write-Offs: Understanding Different Types To Save on Taxes

A write-off primarily refers to a business accounting expense reported to account for unreceived payments or losses on assets.
www.investopedia.com www.investopedia.com

So you can use losses in a business to pay less taxes in your other businesses.
So you'd then have a business to not make profits right?


We can also go into using Shell companies.

Or using a business to store assets.

Or using a business for a limited period for a particular project and then winding it up.

How would you classify Twitter.
Would you say it (Twitter) is a business enterprise that is about making (earning) money?
