Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk on Saturday asked his 62.5 million followers
on Twitter if he should sell 10% of his Tesla stock.
"Much is made lately of unrealized gains being a means of tax avoidance, so I
propose selling 10% of my Tesla stock," Musk wrote in a tweet referring to a
"billionaires' tax" proposed by Democrats in the U.S. Senate.
Musk tweeted that he would abide by the results of the poll.
The poll received more than 700,000 responses in one hour since he posted it,
with nearly 56% of respondents approving the proposal to sell the shares.
Musk's shareholding in Tesla comes to about 170.5 million shares as of June
30 and selling 10% of his stock would amount to about $21 billion based on
Friday's closing, according to Reuters calculations.
Analysts say he may have to offload a significant number of shares anyway to
pay taxes since a large number of options will expire next year.
The comment from Musk comes after a proposal in the U.S. Congress to tax
billionaires' assets to help pay for President Joe Biden's social and
climate-change agenda.
Musk is one of the world's richest people and owner of several futuristic
companies, including SpaceX and Neuralink. He has previously criticized the
billionaires' tax on Twitter.
"Note, I do not take a cash salary or bonus from anywhere. I only have stock,
thus the only way for me to pay taxes personally is to sell stock," Musk said
on Twitter.
Tesla board members including Elon Musk's mother, Kimbal, have recently sold
shares of the electric carmaker. Kimbal Musk sold 88,500 Tesla shares while
fellow board member Ira Ehrenpreis sold shares worth more than $200 million
