Elon Musk's Twitter Takeover: Good Or Bad?

Business Lunch

In today's episode, the hosts discuss Elon Musk and the recent Twitter acquisition. They talk about how Musk is being incredibly transparent about the situation and how he is handling it. They also discuss how some people may not be able to sympathize with him because he is still employed and has a lot of money. However, they argue that if you are in a position of power, you have to make difficult decisions and sometimes people will get hurt.
