Big brother Tesla

He manages to makes shed loads of cash though. Probably more than all of us on this forum combined

That is not a metric I use to measure the quality of a person.
Drug cartels make loads of money too.

Not if you include CRXAndy's self-declared wealth.

Exactly.
Paul Gascoigne has made more money than me. (and Spen). It's a hilarious metric to use for anything!

Who said it was a metric to measure the quality of a person - certainly not me.
It remains however a fact that he earns a shed load more money than the rest of us combined and is therefore in a capitalist world doing something successful.

The politics of envy is out bright and early this morning

You've just used it as a metric - there in black and white :P

I did not use it as a metric to measure the quality of a person.
I used it as a metric of the fact he earns more than those of us on here combined.

It seems you are confusing earning with the quality of a person. and then arguing that you don't think earnings are a measure of the quality of a person

No 'probably' about it, he is on course to become the world's first trillionaire & the wealthiest person in history. He accrues more wealth during the time he spends voiding his bowels than most people would in a lifetime.

It is curious that you appear to consider criticism of him to be based on envy rather than the actual quality of his 'achievements' or the evident nature of his character.

Please explain in what way how much money he makes is important to anyone outside of people he likes?
Don't care if he is a multi-trillionaire, he is still a knob. A knob with loads-o-money, but so what?

So disliking anyone who's richer than you is automatically 'envy'?

In other news, you can be rich and successful in business and still be a total daffodil. Who knew.

It seems you are confusing "envy" with "recognising a vile human being".
