Bill Ackman on Musk: Billions Can't Buy Back His Daughter's Health, Neuralink Is the Hope
chrisfleck · x · 2026-11-09
A widely shared commentary on a Bill Ackman interview clip about Elon Musk. The most striking part isn't SpaceX's or Tesla's trillion-dollar valuations, but Ackman's half-sentence about his daughter: even billions can't buy back her ability to see and speak again — and the only physical hope today, Neuralink, comes from someone who could have retired decades ago yet keeps pushing hard tech. The poster argues Musk chose to turn his winnings into scalpels and engines, crashing into humanity's hardest physical and medical frontiers instead of retiring.
