Brumar,
President Musk spends all day every day playing a video game
No he doesn't. It's obvious to any gamer that the Muskperger paid someone to level up his video game characters.

Which brings up an interesting topic, namely the market for "virtual gold" and leveled-up characters in video games. Instead of gaining rewards and leveling up characters by playing these games for hours on end, some people are willing to pay for this stuff.

This has created a shadow industry of video game "farmers" who use bots and AI-controlled characters to gain these rewards so that they can sell them.

I personally wondered who would waste their money for virtual rewards that don't mean anything other than bragging rights.

Now I have my answer. The world's richest man-child would gladly pay money just to falsely brag about being at the top of a video game.

As the kiddies used to say, "Weird flex, but OK" ...
