    He may be guilty and he may not be. You have no idea. Have you ever thought about getting the truth before you try to take people down?

    Let's review:

    250k from a trillionaire is purely nuisance value. His time per hour is worth more than that.
    Additionally most of his wealth is held in stocks. Stocks are effected by public opinion. Public opinion has nothing to do with objective fact, it is purely subjective.
    Bad PR, even if he can come out the other side of it, effects the share price of his stocks.

    No.
    And the statement released is pure hearsay which couldn't be introduced as evidence at all.

    So the $250,000 he paid her was just a .........gift?

    It doesn't matter what it matters to him, its a vary large pay-off no matter how you spin it.

    Last I heard Tesla was down about 30%

    There is no case. Cite a court filing otherwise.

    It was nuisance value, as explained.

    Its a very small pay off from a trillionaire. Even with the straight up nothing she has to work with, I could've gotten her twice that at least from someone like Musk.
    He likely paid his lawyers that amount ffs.

    Literally speaking, his time per hour is more than that and he personally attended the voluntary and unconnected with any court filing mediation.

    If you're going to talk about something, try to know about it first dear.

    Who said anything about a court filing? Musk paid he off to avoid court. How hard is that to understand?

    Maybe its nuisance to Musk, but its about 5 year salary for a flight attendant. HUGE amount of money for her. Even Trump paid much less to silence the prostitutes he used for sexual gratification.

    Irrelevant.

    Dear? I'm not your boyfriend "dear".

    Of course. But it indicates nothing about his guilt or innocence.

    It could be relevant it the flight attendant were looking for an increase in income. Again, the point is that you don't know.

    Charge him and put him away but when evidence is found that he did not, the accuser was lying, 30 years in jail.

    Hush money pretty much indicates that he did something he didnt want anyone to know about. It was not rape, it was molestation, but its still costing him dearly, and his attempt to portray himself as a political figure (a victim) is backfiring.

    30 years.....seriously?

    Hush money can also mean that the payer understands that pursuing the case would cost more than the hush money. I've had to do that myself. I was sued once and found quickly that a payment to the complainant was far cheaper than hiring a lawyer. Basically I was ripped off. It happens.

    Businesses give dissatisfied customers free stuff all the time to make them shut up and go away. A quarter million for an allegation of this magnitude, suggests to me that it was an attempt to make her shut up and go away, rather than being an admission of guilt. Otherwise they would have given her several million, imo. Then again, I can see a guy getting aroused from a massage by a female. It's how men are built. I understand that Musk has challenged the complainant to describe anything pertaining to his privates to prove her complaint. Have you heard/read that? Has she responded?

    Several million? Why? Even Trump gave only $50K per prostitute. These people don't make much money so $250 000 is a life changer for them.

    And no companies do NOT give dissatisfied employees $250 000 to shut up and go away. They give dissatisfied employees the boot in the ass. They give them $250 000 to keep a secret.

    Sure. I said already, he is not a rapist. He thought he might get something out of the situation, but she was not that kind of woman and she took offense to it. Now that it became public he is embarrassed that everyone knows that he whipped his penis out like that.

    You did when you referenced "case" more than once. There is no case, cite a filing otherwise.

    A flight attendant is not a porn star: The amount of splash they can make with immediate credibility still on tap since they haven't whored themselves publicly presents a greater nuisance.

    No, perfectly relevant: He makes more money than that in half an hour and if they'd had ANYTHING like actual evidence of wrongdoing they'd have gotten more money because the risk of nuisance they presented would be vastly increased by having ACTUAL EVIDENCE.

    Sure thing dear.

    Elon Musk has not been in the public eye these last 5 years? What private person has been in the public eye more?

    Me? Not at all. Why shoot the messenger? The flight attendant has a problem with him, not me. I think Musk is making a mistake trying to pretend he is a victim of a political witch-hunt when everyone knows he is not a politician and no one would have a political axe to grind with him.

    It isn't a political witch hunt, obviously. It could be gold digging. Stop guessing and wait for facts.

    She's not game. Didn't you learn from what happened when Elon waved his penis in her face. It'll cost you $250 000 and and she'll still expose your name to the public.

    "The flight attendant has a problem with him, not me." so you don't even have an actual person making a claim eh?
