Spacex is worth buying. The best chance to make a lot of money is buying stock before the economics make sense. By the time SpaceX looks like a good company on paper with strong profits… the price will be so high you have little chance of making anything significant. If it’s a long term hold, consider how far away retirement is for you. Also, moon bases are coming.

The AI companies IMO are fucked. In the next few years computer hardware should advance to the point that local LLMs are good enough for everyday workloads. Not everyone needs top of the line flagship models in a cloud to see productivity gains. Companies will actually save money just buying employees top of the line laptops for AI enabled work than blowing that same amount on tokens every month.



You're assuming the economics will ever make sense. Remember what happened to WeWork?

So you'll be buying if it's at $5T market cap then? Because if not, you agree it's a matter of how much it's worth to pay for the wildly different ranges of future growth.


In 10 or 20 years when people are still bitching about P/E ratios the price of SpaceX will still be way higher than whatever you buy it at IPO.

Either that, or it will be zero.

16 years ago when Tesla IPOed, people still bitched about it just the same way. Do you think buying and holding the stock all this time would have been some bad investment? Or what about bitcoin, which truly has no value?

Read the room. Just get in there and make money, or get left behind.


the AI companies make way way too much revenue to be f*cked, and people are hooked and they have not tested limits of their pricing power yet.
