Elon Musk’s $1 Trillion Tesla Deal: Is He Really Worth It?

In this Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings break down Elon Musk’s unprecedented $1 trillion compensation proposal at Tesla. Musk, currently the richest person in the world, has requested a payout package with ambitious benchmarks—he only stands to earn the $1 trillion if Tesla reaches an astounding $8.5 trillion valuation, far above its current worth. The conversation covers the stakes of this deal, Musk’s influence on Tesla’s success, and the implications for shareholders. Tune in as the hosts debate whether one person should hold so much power and value in a company. Is Tesla’s success all about Musk, or does the company provide real innovation that can stand the test of time? The clip draws historical parallels, discussing Steve Jobs’ ousting from Apple and Warren Buffett’s impact on Berkshire Hathaway, all to ask: What happens when a visionary leader steps away? The hosts also explore Musk’s vision for Tesla, which now goes beyond cars into robotics and AI, and consider how much Tesla’s value depends on Musk himself.
