Elon is currently blowing tens of billions of dollars running Twitter into the ground, designs impractical cars because he thinks they look cool, committing light treason, and campaigning for a president who would be detrimental to his business interests.

Bezos seems to spend most of his time having sex with his age appropriate mistress on his $500 million yacht.
