I wanted to check this. It’s not true. At the start of 2020 he had about 25 Billion Net worth. It has gone up as much as 350 Billion in late 2021 and is at 227 Billion as of now. I included a graph that showed the progress untill mid 2023. So no. No cherrypicking.

You can even see the dip in Elon’s networth in 2020 in this chart lol If they had started 1 month earlier, Elons net worth would have only 3x instead they cherry picked a date after Elon’s networth had halved, so instead it 6x’ed.

I don’t see it. Like, honestly, I can’t see it. If you zoom in you can see months and years. I can see no major dip in 2020 at all?
