A Tesla investor put $25K in when the company was worth $2 billion and sold at $7 billion for $75K. Tesla later hit a trillion-dollar valuation, meaning those shares would have been worth $6 million if he'd held.

I invested in Tesla when Tesla was at $2 billion, and I put all the money I had straight out of college. I put it into Tesla at $2 billion, and I rode it up till it was at $7 billion or something like that. And I cashed out at a 3x. And I remember at the time thinking, okay, General Motors, they were at $20-something billion. And I was like, one day Tesla could be, you know, half as big or maybe even as big as those companies. It just seemed like that was the roof. And then Tesla went up and became at one point a trillion-dollar company. My $2 billion could have become a trillion, basically. How much did you put in? $25,000? Yeah, I had like $25 grand in it. I had done the math at one point, and this It wasn't the peak, but at one point it was like, I would've had $6 million from that 25K.
