Tech billionaire Elon Musk has frequently raised concerns about corruption, from the mismanagement of government funds to the influence of the Deep State. In a recent appearance on Joe Rogan’s The Joe Rogan Experience (#2281), Musk delved into the topic of insider trading, among other pressing issues. However, he hinted that revealing everything he knows could put his own well-being at risk.

Insider trading—an illegal practice—creates an unfair advantage for those with privileged access to non-public information, significantly impacting stock markets and investor confidence. During his conversation with the UFC commentator, Musk suggested that such activities are not only widespread but also easily traceable for those who know where to look.

“The insider trading stuff, like the stock portfolio stuff is quite trackable. And it’s a lot more than insider trading,” said Elon Musk. Joe Rogan went to inquire and ask, “The way they’re acquiring wealth?” And the world’s richest person replied in the affirmative by saying, “Correct.” But when Rogan wanted to learn about the “methods” through which these operations, Musk decided to take a deep breath and explain to Rogan that he was putting himself in the firing line by spilling all the beans.

In fact, the Tesla CEO claims that he could lose his life for digging deeper and being too public about it. “I mean, this is really going to get me assassinated,” the tech mogul further stated,

This left Joe Rogan lost for words, after which he tried to lighten up the mood a little. “I’m not lengthening my life span by explaining this stuff, to say the least. I mean, I’m supposed to get back to [Washington] D.C. How am I going to survive? Somebody’s going to ki-l me for sure [both laugh hysterically].”

Musk’s statements sounded like he was advised not to blow the horn too much on issues surrounding corruption because there could be repercussions. The billionaire claims there are people whose lives depend on the whole process that’s involved in insider trading, and to keep things running as it is, they may not hesitate to pull the trigger on him.

“It’s like I actually have to be careful that I don’t push too hard on the corruption stuff. It is gonna get me killed,” Elon Musk added. “People get desperate… If the money flow cuts off, okay, they cannot afford school for their kids. Then they’re like, ‘Woah, f–k you. I’m gonna ki-l you for my kids.”

Well, Elon Musk is in sound health, and there have been no assassination attempts on him. However, the billionaire did receive a death threat in a message from a TikToker. And guess what? Musk responded to that as well.

Elon Musk recently responded to an ‘assassination’ threat

Over a month ago, a TikTok user by the username ‘Libs of TikTok’ shared a video and made some alarming statements. He called for “somebody” to get rid of Elon Musk and even US President Donald Trump, encouraging people to sacrifice their lives. “All the Elon, Trump stuff, it’s getting to a point, man. Like, somebody is going to have to [assassinate them], preferably someone who’s already doing it. Somebody’s going to have to just throw their life away on this one,” the Tiktoker stated.

Well, Elon Musk, known for not holding back, responded to these threats on his platform, X. Guess what? His response was a bit cheeky, to say the least. “Everybody dies, but not everybody lives,” said Musk while ridiculing the TikTok user and his statements.
