Elon Musk commits fraud because he liked the weed number

According to Musk, he calculated the $420 price per share based on a 20% premium over that day’s closing share price because he thought 20% was a ‘standard premium’ in going-private transaction,” the SEC alleged in its suit. “This calculation resulted in a price of $419, and Musk stated that he rounded the price up to $420 because he had recently learned about the number’s significance in marijuana culture and thought his girlfriend ‘would find it funny, which admittedly is not a great reason to pick a price.’
So the bad part is that daily news is harder and harder to tell from the result of me reading clickhole while having a stroke. Good news is this revives my faint, distant hope that the entire marriage to Elon Musk is just Grimes running a long con on him.
