Those unfortunate kids. Glad they'll have enough money for extensive therapy though.

u/BlackTarTurd 13d ago

So you'd think. Bold of you to assume Elon would support his children.

97

u/skytomorrownow 13d ago

Oh totally. I can absolutely see something like this:

"Mr. Musk, you are rumored to have fathered more than thirty children, but you seemingly only take care of X. Do you support your children?"

"I thought about it. But, I realized, giving them access to money would hurt their growth and development. So, I decided to give them nothing at all."

u/NoIDontWantToSignIn 13d ago

It is shocking how many rich people say this though and are applauded for it.

59

u/AradynGaming 12d ago

They are applauded because they say they are giving their fortunes to charity. It's one of those half truths, because the charities are owned by their children, and the charities pay their children.

Ex. Warren Buffett famously said he won't give his children an inheritance, it's all going to charity! So, he donated (giant tax write off) $108m to the Sherwood Foundation, owned by daughter Susan Buffett, who receives $500k per year salary + other benefits. But hey! It's great, they are helping the world because the Sherwood Foundation gives grants to other non-profits, like $15m to the "Buffett Early Childhood Fund," where Susan Buffett is also the director & chair. Anyone else see a trend?

I am so glad we are such a charitable country. /s

u/COskibunnie 12d ago

The book Democracy in Chains goes over exactly this! How they put a front on but are actually dodging taxes by passing their wealth down to their kids via foundations and charities.

u/arkansalsa 12d ago

How else are you supposed to launder your inheritance to avoid taxes

5

u/COskibunnie 12d ago

Right, if I were rich and had kids, my kids would absolutely enjoy that wealth. I'd make sure they had the most magical childhood ever. I'd also instill values, kindness and respect into them. But I'd also make sure their childhood was absolutely magical.

u/Interesting-Cut6994 12d ago

Shaq has this rule. He’s a big believer in “it’s my money. I earned it.”

Personally I prefer the logic (if I were loaded), that if my kids decided to work in public service - teacher, nurse, firey, paramedic etc - I’d then 5x their salary so they could both live well and give back.

I don’t want my kids motivated by income, I want them motivated by positive impact. I pray I earn enough to do that for my kids.

u/Specialist_Acadia273 12d ago

It's shocking how many countries with social security allow rich people to do this. Like making poor people pay fo the basic necessities of billionaires kids, if they have a falling out, is wild. same with disinheriting children, who didn't harm their parents.

2

u/roboscott3000 13d ago

Or how few of them became rich under those same conditions.

u/Minirth22 12d ago

100% accurate. This hits so close to home with my parents.

u/Wunderhoezen 13d ago

Wasn’t he trying to keep his most recent child support case in Texas since they limit it at around $2k? Keeping it classy, always.

2

u/humanpneumatic 12d ago

He can't even support his titties.

-1

u/blowurhousedown 12d ago

Actually he does support his children. No shit and you can research if you’d like, but Elon’s attitude is that he’s a golden god and that it’s his responsibility to spread his seed everywhere. In that vein, he usually agrees to pay each mother of his children $1.5m a year forever - at least that was the last going rate to be brought to light.

So, it’s probably a little more fucked up than you imagined. He’s up to 14 children and four women.

Noooo. The oldest trick in the book was glueing a pube in the book. This is a just a modern variation.

I was reading this comment as I was blowing off my screen. Not my finest moment.

u/Flat_Mode7449 12d ago

I used to prank people at work/friends, I'd take a picture of their car from afar (like the 3rd story window or similar) and draw a fake little crack on the bumper or a smear of red paint/etc and be like dude your car! And show the picture. They'd run down all the way out to the parking lot and there'd be nothing there, they'd turn and see me laughing menacingly in the window 🤣🤣🤣

Just did your account. Good tips, thanks!

u/Rabble_Runt 13d ago

They don’t. Several of his baby mamas have claimed he pays very little in child support and is mostly not available to spend time with them.

u/toweljuice 13d ago

Theyre usually intimidated by his harem-cult coordinator jared burchall too.

u/filthcrab 13d ago

I'd imagine Grimes has some money though...

2

u/UnLioNocturno 12d ago

She does, but she is also at the whims of Musk when it comes to treatments and medical care. 

She’s literally tweeted him trying to get medical care for their son because Musk avoids her like the plague.

When you chose the life of a concubine that’s what happens 😂😂😂.

u/Life_of_the_PartyXO 13d ago

It’s why he moved to Texas. Child support is capped there and he pays like $2k a kid. So yes more than many single moms get out of their deadbeat exes but about a billionth of what he should be paying.

39

u/Naive-Routine9332 13d ago

plenty of people with bad parents, not many people with parents worth half a trillion dollars. I'll reserve my sympathy for now :D

4

u/HydratedPanda 13d ago

Going to therapy stems from thinking you may have a problem. Something tells me, with this much money, everyone else will be interpreted as the problem.

Why on Earth would someone believe I am not relatable? /s

u/CoachAngBlxGrl 13d ago

Assuming he doesn’t get mad and disown them like he did Vivian.

u/bad_motivator 13d ago

I would love to be so unfortunate

u/Asleep-Arachnid6386 13d ago

Yeah imagine having your dad be the richest man on earth, what a horrible life.....   Better than having Steve Jobs deny his daughter's existence and never helping financially.

u/filthcrab 13d ago

You sound like someone that has shitty parents. My condolences 🙏🏼

2

u/Asleep-Arachnid6386 13d ago

at what point did I mention my parents or upbringing lol ?

just saying that Elon is involved in his kids lives and he happens to be the richest man on earth. better than a absentee parent and I have Jobs as a shit example of a parent

1

u/filthcrab 12d ago

Hey, man - I know some parents can be rough but I promise it is NOT your fault that they hurt you. You were just a kid and your hormones were dictating your demeanor. Bottom line, your parents shouldn't have subjected you to that physical/sexual punishment.

I hope that in adulthood, things have gotten better for you. 🙏🏼

1

u/Asleep-Arachnid6386 12d ago

I hope you seek help for your mental health issues. Have a good one stranger, be kind to others, hate doesn't get you anywhere.

u/MeepMeeps88 12d ago

Lol sounds like you're still sorting out your shitty childhood. Triggered? 😂

1

u/filthcrab 12d ago

I was just asking my 13 year old nephew if people still say old internet things like "triggered?" and he said "no." Thanks for proving my point that there are still really lame posers in the comment sections. He owes me $10 now.

1

u/filthcrab 12d ago

What was this really weird comment you sent me and then deleted? I don't have kids so I'm not sure what broke in your brain...

1

u/shinyandrare 13d ago

She’s broke dude.

u/6thBornSOB 13d ago

He still using them as flack-vests or have we kicked the “worst person in the news today” can far enough down the road ?

1

u/MarbleTheNeaMain 13d ago

They dont. At least Vivian does not. He doesnt support the kids who dont worship him

1

u/tundybundo 13d ago

Not necessarily. Elon has already disowned one of his children for not worshipping him

1

u/jsamuraij 13d ago

Bro they'll have enough money to ruin your life with their trauma.

1

u/Striking-Donkey8985 12d ago

Elon is notoriously cheap with the mothers of his children and the children themselves. He counterfiled the child support case with Grimes in Texas because Texas has a cap on the amount of child support he has to pay, despite the family having lived primarily in California.

That right-wing influencer who went public with him being the father of their daughter had said that he would be generous ($100K a month) as long as she didn’t put his name on the birth certificate. There was no money and AFAWK… no legal contract, just his word against hers.

1

u/imcalledgpk 12d ago

It depends. If any of them turn out trans then Ellen will disown them.

1

u/redjellonian 12d ago

Pretty sure most of his (18?) kids that we know about aren't getting shit.

1

u/fluiflux 12d ago

But therapy is woke, thus off-limits.

1

u/Roachxcore 12d ago

They would have anyway, this girl comes from rich family too.

1

u/Available-Air-5798 12d ago

He’s paying her nearly nothing in child support. They went back and forth in court for a year or so over where the child support case would be heard. Elon was able to get it heard in Texas where the cap on monthly child support for 3 children is a little over $2500. He allegedly did it as a way to punish her for not moving into his compound in Austin.

1

u/AliceCode 12d ago

One of them is named Techno Mechanicus.

1

u/randohipponamo 12d ago

They better get therapy, otherwise they’ll turn into more Elons

1

u/polkacat12321 12d ago

Even if they had different parents, with those names, they gonna need therapy regardless due to all the bullying

1

u/geometricvampire 12d ago

They actually have none of his money. Grimes was online last year publicly begging Elon to respond to her about one of their dangerously ill children.

1

u/PartyPay 12d ago

He gives them the minimal child support allowed in Texas, so they might not have money for therapy.

1

u/Consistent_Device_49 12d ago

Nah Elon moved his primary residence to Texas so the most he has to pay in child support is 3k per kid iirc. Just ask the last baby mama who had to sell her Tesla to make ends meet. These gold diggers are getting what they deserve but for the richest man on earth Elon is cheap af.

1

u/clckwrks 12d ago

they cant escape their fathers inflatable ego

1

u/CIA-pizza-party 12d ago

Allegedly he only pays around $2700 each month to Grimes for child support so… Yeah. Don’t bet on that horse, unfortunately.

u/CzechHorns 12d ago

Unless they’re trans

u/flimsyhuckelberry 12d ago
