Tesla shareholders approved a pay package on Thursday that could make CEO Elon Musk, already the world’s richest person, the world’s first trillionaire.

Tesla announced that more than 75% of shares voted in favor of the pay package during the company’s annual shareholder meeting. The vote didn’t include the 15% of the company that Musk already owns.

    I’m sure he brings that much value to the company.

    They don’t have that much value from actual sales…so it’s gotta come from somewhere…

    The shareholders that decide that where put there by Musk personally. When Tesla crashes and burns, they are making sure Musk has more than enough money to give them a few cushy billions for their service (if they will actually get that money is doubtful though, but most grifters think they can’t get grifted themselves)
