How Did Jeff Bezos Save $1 Billion by Moving to Florida?
Jeff Bezos recently moved to Florida, dodging nearly $1 billion in Washington State’s new capital gains tax. Since the move, Bezos has sold $13.6 billion in Amazon stock, reaping the benefits of Florida’s zero income and estate tax policies. His new digs? A $250 million estate on “Billionaire Bunker” island, alongside Tom Brady and Ivanka Trump.
Did the gifting season come early for OpenAI employees?
OpenAI employees are cashing in on a $1.6 billion stock sale backed by SoftBank, with shares priced at $210 each. Current and former employees can pocket up to $10 million, marking a milestone in OpenAI’s journey from nonprofit to a $157 billion AI leader.
Can Tesla Escape the $129 Billion Tax Liability?
Tesla’s $129 billion executive pay package for Elon Musk has been voided by a Delaware court, raising massive tax and accounting challenges. If rewritten, Tesla could face a $50 billion accounting charge, while Musk may owe a $70 billion tax bill. The stakes are sky-high as the company navigates compliance, financial stability, and shareholder trust.

How Nissan and Honda’s Merger Could Shake Up EVs
Nissan and Honda are reportedly eyeing a $54 billion merger to create the world’s third-largest automaker, producing over 8 million vehicles annually. With a focus on EVs, the partnership aims to challenge Tesla and BYD, but faces hurdles like Renault’s stake in Nissan, operational challenges, and regulatory scrutiny.
