Twitter is the Sinkhole. Musk just doesn't know it yet.


I mean, he might. He tried like hell to get out of the deal once he realized it was a giant mistake. He has enough hubris to think he can somehow flip it for a W but I think he's still pretty shook.


Considering I'd be very happy if this whole thing brings both Musk and Twitter down, if he really does turn it around somehow I'm gonna be :francis:

I got a bottle of 2012 Penfolds Grange that I've been waiting to open this year. Maybe I'll save it a little longer for when he's finally drowned by hubris & debt - a moment worth savouring and celebrating.

I just don't see any route to make Twitter profitable, when your going private, unless putting up a Subscription Plan. I bet he will fire the staff and try to offshore it to China. Sure your saving money, but your not making money. If Musk went all in with his money, this wouldn't be a problem, but he has investors to pay off as well; not the people who own Twitter, but gave him money to buy Twitter.

Yeah he thinks cutting staff will fix the issue because Wallstreet loves layoffs. But thats a “tread water” play. You cant make major changes with far less staff.

Plus he canned a lot of popular managers. The people who stay are the ones who have to stay so hes going to bleed talent too on top of layoffs.

Then theres the people who will rage quit Twitter; users and advertisers.

And I suspect some angry ex employees will plant poison pills in their software.

Plus with this, Twitter is being Delisted on Nov. 8. So even if this was a "Stock Market Manipulation" move, Twitter will be listed for another week and that's it.
