The founder of SpaceX and Tesla, Elon Musk, after the next stage of the sale of shares in the automaker, wrote on Twitter that he was considering leaving his job to become a blogger.

“I'm thinking of quitting my job and becoming an influential blogger on a permanent basis,” Musk said and asked his audience what they thought of the idea. Those in the comments offered the businessman to help with the promotion of his channels.

Musk today divested of more than 934,000 Tesla shares for a total of $ 963 million, just days after he got rid of 934,091 shares worth $ 1.01 billion.

For more than a month, the entrepreneur has been consistently reducing his stake in the company, as the media suggest, in order to avoid paying taxes on stock options in the amount of $ 15 billion. On November 6, Musk published a survey on his microblog on Twitter, in which he asked subscribers whether or not he should sell 10% of its Tesla shares. In total, Musk has already sold about 11 million shares of the company. He needs to get rid of another 6 million securities in order to reach the promised threshold. Tesla shares have dropped 18% since November 4, when Musk began selling his shares.

At the same time, the businessman remains the richest man in the world with a fortune of $ 266 billion. This year it has grown by $ 110 billion. In October, Tesla's market capitalization reached the trillion dollar mark for the first time. At its peak, it was $ 1.038 trillion.
