A Tesla engineer with 150k+ followers shared the amusing "circle of life" of his paycheck: money earned at Tesla flows straight back into the Musk ecosystem — Starlink subscription, a Tesla car with FSD, insurance, apparel, Powerwall, solar, and a Grok subscription.
It's a vivid illustration of cross-selling across Musk's companies: a single user's spending can touch Tesla, SpaceX and xAI at once.
