    Tesla has sold 7 million and something cars in total according to google. If each of those was 100k, that would still be less than a trillion in total. How could one guy get paid more than the whole company ever made?

      This is supposed to be paid out over time based on future performance milestones. Also based on projected increased value of shares as a result.

      Still insanely, insanely high though.
