**[Musk's New Compensation Plan Revealed: $1 Trillion "Wager"]** Tesla's board of directors proposed a new compensation plan on Friday, under which Musk could receive compensation worth approximately $1 trillion if he achieves a series of highly challenging goals over the next decade. According to the plan, Musk will not receive any salary or bonuses; his compensation will be distributed in the form of stock, vested in stages. The unlocking conditions include significant growth in Tesla's market value, substantial increases in profitability, the sale of millions of vehicles, and other key milestones. In a letter to investors, Board Chair Robyn Denholm stated: "Retaining and motivating Musk is critical to Tesla becoming the most valuable company in history. This compensation plan is designed to align extraordinary long-term shareholder value with incentives, driving our visionary leader to achieve peak performance." The board emphasized that Musk's incentives are closely aligned with the interests of investors. If Tesla's growth stagnates, he will receive nothing. However, the sheer scale of this compensation is likely to reignite fierce debates about the income level of the world's richest man.
