    Nah, they’ll laugh at first, but then you’ll get taken upstairs and Jamie will open a bottle of your favorite Tequila, telling you that he thinks you need an even bigger credit line than you applied for.

    Wait, you don’t run a wildly unprofitable company “worth” several billion dollars where you can use your equity as collateral for the credit line? Welp, sounds like a you problem.

      Not a me problem. I blame my parents for trying to be good humans and teaching values instead of just enslaving people in apartheid-ridden emerald mines.

        Tbh this particular joke was a reference to the WeWork fiasco and specifically the show WeCrashed, where the founder goes into JPMorgan Chase and asks for a 50 million line of credit after being pre-approved for 20k, then asks the clerk to google him and then gets brought to the bank’s CEO instead.

        Of course, Adam Neumann was also a huge fraud, comparable to Musk in that both have been known to promise the world and deliver shit.
