> Bloomberg spent a billion dollars of his own money trying to be president

The Clintons made around $100 million for being President. The Clinton Foundation is worth $300b, and is largely used to fund the Clintons. Obama is worth $70 million. Trump initially viewed his run for office as publicity stunt for his businesses. He was obviously surprised that he won.

Being President is very, very lucrative.

> FWIW Tesla literally did exist before he was involved

I know. And without Musk nobody would have ever heard of it.

I think it's 300 million[1], not billion.
