Elon Musk's net worth, as of January 31, 2026, is approximately $775 billion according to Forbes'. There have been ~3/4 million days since the birth of Christ. Elon created for himself over $1,000,000 a day of wealth, since 0 BCE.
He plans to more than 10x that in the next decade.

Anna Paulowna (1795-1865) was de dochter van tsaar Paul I. Zij groeide op aan het Russische hof in een wereld van pracht en praal. Haar opvoeding was grondig en internationaal georiënteerd: Anna leerde meerdere talen en werd voorbereid op een leven waarin zij een dynastieke rol zou vervullen. 1/4

Big moment for Europe: in December, fully electric cars outsold petrol-only cars in the EU for the first time.
This shows that clear, consistent policy works. Which is exactly why backtracking now would be a mistake. Rolling back targets or creating uncertainty would slow investment and innovation.

We purposefully dismantled a robust national rail network and replaced it with forced car dependency.
Seeing high-quality European sleeper cabins for €55 highlights the freedom we lost to decades of social engineering and auto industry subsidization.
