As of this month, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43644403/elon-musk-you-cant-stop-the-advent-of-electric-cars-says-ev-success-is-as-inevitable-as-cars-replacing-horses">Elon Musk</a>, CEO of Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and SpaceX, is still the world's richest person, with a net worth of around $393.2 billion, <a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/elon-musk">according to Forbes</a>. While that's an enormous fortune, some experts don't believe Musk will be the first to reach trillionaire status.&nbsp;
"The world's first trillionaires are going to come from somebody who masters AI and all its derivatives and applies it in ways we never thought of," Mark Cuban <a href="https://youtu.be/ekYd-s-QL7o">said at SXSW</a> back in 2017.

<li>It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a></li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Role of AI In Creating The First Trillionaire</h2>
Fast forward to today, and Cuban's prediction is looking more accurate than ever. AI is no longer a futuristic concept—it's part of everyday life, changing the way industries operate.&nbsp;
The AI sector is valued at $214.6 billion and is expected to soar to $1,339.1 billion by 2030, growing at a 35.7% annual rate, <a href="https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/PressReleases/artificial-intelligence.asp">according to MarketsAndMarket.com</a>.&nbsp; Nearly half (49%) of businesses already use AI in some form, and that number is only going to increase, <a href="https://www.pwc.com/us/en/tech-effect/ai-analytics/ai-predictions.html">PWC said recently</a>.&nbsp;
The potential for AI to create extreme wealth is becoming clearer. <a href="https://www.goldmansachs.com/insights/articles/generative-ai-could-raise-global-gdp-by-7-percent">Goldman Sachs has predicted reports</a> that AI could increase the global economy's GDP by 7%—or nearly $7 trillion—over the next decade. Given these numbers, Cuban's argument that AI mastery could create the first trillionaire makes a lot of sense.
Trending: ‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.</a>
Musk, for his part, is heavily invested in AI through Tesla's Full Self-Driving software, Neuralink, and xAI. But Cuban doesn't believe Musk—or even Amazon's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Jeff Bezos—will be the first to hit a trillion dollars. Instead, he thinks it will be someone who approaches AI from a completely different angle.
"It could be someone who studied philosophy to better understand and solve complicated problems within human nature," Cuban suggested.&nbsp;
Musk's road to trillionaire status also isn't as straightforward as it might seem. His fortune is tied closely to Tesla's stock, which has seen major swings, dropping 27% since its December peak. <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-10/musk-s-net-worth-falls-below-400-billion-for-first-time-in-2025">Bloomberg has reported </a>that this volatility makes it difficult for Musk to hold onto his top spot, let alone climb to $1 trillion.
Meanwhile, AI is accelerating at a breakneck pace. In 2024, venture capitalists poured over $50 billion into AI startups, CB Insights said last month.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Industry giants like Google (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), and OpenAI are leading the charge, making AI one of the most competitive and fast-moving sectors. <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/mgi/our-research/generative-ai-and-the-future-of-work-in-america">According to McKinsey</a>, AI-driven automation could replace up to 30% of today's job functions by 2030, shifting how industries operate and creating entirely new markets.
Cuban's advice? Keep learning. He believes that staying ahead of AI developments is the best way to remain competitive in the future job market.&nbsp;

Consumer Tech News (Feb 17-Feb 21): Mexico Warns Alphabet Over Naming of the "Gulf of Mexico" On Maps, Apple Launches iPhone 16E & More

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has taken over creative control of the James Bond franchise, with his streaming service now in charge of the legendary British spy series.
What Happened: Bezos took to social media to ask for public opinion on who should be the next James Bond. British actor Henry Cavill emerged as the clear favorite. Cavill, who has starred in &#8220;Mission: Impossible — Fallout,&#8221; &#8220;The Man from U.N.C.L.E.,&#8221; and &#8220;Argylle,&#8221; outperformed other candidates such as Tom Hardy, Tom Hiddleston, Theo James, and Michael Fassbender.
Support for Cavill came from various corners, including Dogecoin creator Billy Markus and Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Bezos, however, has not yet responded to the suggestions.
Amazon&#8217;s purchase of MGM Studios for $8.5 billion allowed it to enter the Bond franchise, but until now, creative direction was still in the hands of the Broccoli family.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Who'd you pick as the next Bond? <a href="https://t.co/u7nBaRROlf">pic.twitter.com/u7nBaRROlf</a>
&mdash; Jeff Bezos (@JeffBezos) <a href="https://twitter.com/JeffBezos/status/1892590064766484622?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 20, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
While Cavill&#8217;s casting is popular, there is concern among fans about how Amazon will handle the franchise. This is due to the company&#8217;s controversial handling&nbsp;of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth&nbsp;in The Rings of Power series.

The Bond franchise is known for its high-budget set pieces and cinematic universe, and fans worry that Amazon may water this down with its approach.
Why It Matters: This move by Bezos marks a significant shift in the control of the James Bond franchise. The acquisition of MGM Studios by Amazon was a clear indication of the company&#8217;s intent to delve deeper into the entertainment industry. 
However, the change in creative control from the Broccoli family to Bezos could potentially alter the direction of the franchise. The public&#8217;s choice of Cavill as the next James Bond also reflects a desire for continuity in the character&#8217;s portrayal. 
However, Amazon&#8217;s controversial handling of The Rings of Power series has raised concerns about the future of the Bond franchise. This development is a key moment in the evolution of the entertainment industry, as tech giants continue to expand their influence.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk Alleges Political Delay 
Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, claimed that the return of astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore from the International Space Station (ISS) was delayed due to &#8220;political reasons.&#8221; Musk suggested that SpaceX could have brought the astronauts back last year, but the return was pushed past the inauguration date.

Rivian&#8217;s Financial Struggles&nbsp;

Rivian's New Edition, Spacex Delays, Tesla's Decline, And Nikola's Bankruptcy: This Week In Mobility

Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chief Elon Musk is demanding that federal employees justify their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43581767/elon-musks-former-employees-warn-federal-workers-about-long-hours-firings-and-much-more">positions to him through email</a> or lose their jobs.
What Happened: Musk declared that federal employees who do not comply with this directive will be considered to have resigned. He says the move aligns with President Donald Trump&#8216;s instructions to eradicate federal waste and fraud.
Musk announced his directive in a Saturday afternoon post on X, stating, &#8220;Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump's instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Consistent with President <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@realDonaldTrump</a>'s instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.
&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1893386883444437415?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 22, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
In another post, Musk shared that a large number of responses have been received and and those people should be considered for promotion.

</figure>
According to a report <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/22/politics/elon-musk-employees-emails/index.html">by</a> CNN, Musk&#8217;s message has stirred up controversy and apprehension among federal employees. Newly confirmed FBI Director Kash Patel advised bureau employees to hold off on responding to the email. He emphasized that the FBI would handle review processes according to its procedures and coordinate responses if further information is required.
"The FBI, through the Office of the Director, is in charge of all of our review processes, and will conduct reviews in accordance with FBI procedures. When and if further information is required, we will coordinate the responses. For now, please pause any responses," Patel said in an email to bureau employees.

Similarly, the National Security Agency employees were instructed to wait for further guidance from the Department of Defense before responding. Secret Service Director Sean Curran advised staff to comply with the email, noting the agency&#8217;s resources available for employees during uncertain times.
The email ultimatum has been heavily criticized by unions representing federal workers.&nbsp;Everett Kelley, the&nbsp;national president of the American&nbsp;Federation of Government Employees, criticized Musk&#8217;s ultimatum, stating it mirrors the Trump administration's disregard&nbsp;for federal employees and their crucial services to the American public.
Doreen Greenwald, President&nbsp;of the National Treasury Employees&nbsp;Union, labeled the email as "completely unAmerican."
Why It Matters: President Trump has appointed Musk to revamp&nbsp;the federal government with his&nbsp;Department of Government Efficiency. However, the legality of this latest move remains uncertain. 
This directive is the latest in a series of moves by Musk and DOGE to streamline the federal workforce and eliminate inefficiencies. 
The approach mirrors Musk&#8217;s previous actions at Tesla and X, where he implemented significant staffing cuts to improve efficiency. The impact of this directive on the federal workforce and its efficiency will be closely watched in the coming weeks.

Elon Musk Demands Federal Workers Justify Their Jobs — FBI's Kash Patel Tells Employees Not To Respond

Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner refused to sign a statement asserting that Donald Trump was not antisemitic in the wake of the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks, according to Michael Wolff&#8216;s latest book, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43173869/ivanka-trump-denounces-fake-crypto-coin-using-her-name" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">All or Nothing: How Trump Recaptured America</a>.
Wolff writes that despite Trump&#8217;s increasing attempts to garner support for Israel following the deadly attacks, he turned to his daughter and son-in-law for public backing, The Guardian <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/21/donald-trump-ivanka-jared-kushner-michael-wolff-all-or-nothing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
However, both Ivanka, a convert to Judaism, and her husband declined to offer formal support or sign the statement.
The refusal to offer public support highlights the tensions within the Trump family, particularly in light of his actions following the attacks.
The couple, both senior advisors during Trump&#8217;s first term, distanced themselves further from the then-former president after the January 6 Capitol riots, The Guardian adds.

They have also chosen not to take any roles in Trump&#8217;s second term, which began after the 2024 election.
Wolff&#8217;s book offers a detailed portrait of Trump&#8217;s political battles, including his controversial tariff decisions, plans for territorial expansion, and clashes with key allies, like Elon Musk.
Musk, a major Trump campaign backer, reportedly generated confusion within Trump&#8217;s team, with Wolff capturing Trump&#8217;s bewilderment at Musk&#8217;s actions during a rally.
All or Nothing, set to be released this week, also reveals personal and professional tensions among Trump&#8217;s inner circle, offering a candid and often critical look at the President&#8217;s second campaign for the White House.

Bill Gates' Concerns, Nvidia' Leap In Genetic Research, Elon Musk's Grok Beats OpenAI's ChatGPT, And More: This Week In AI

Elon Musk&#8216;s intellectual abilities have been called into question by his biographer, Seth Abramson. Abramson has disputed the widely held belief of Musk&#8217;s intellectual achievements, asserting that there is no substantial evidence to support such claims.
What Happened: Abramson, a journalist and attorney, took to social media X on Friday to voice his opinions. He criticized Musk and his followers for using the billionaire&#8217;s IQ as a benchmark of his intellectual capacity.
Abramson, who is in the process of writing a biography on Musk, stated, &#8220;There&#8217;s&nbsp;zero evidence, from his life&nbsp;history, of Musk having anything&nbsp;higher than a 110 IQ.&#8221; He further contended that Musk&#8217;s success with companies such as Zip2, PayPal, and&nbsp;Tesla Inc.&nbsp;was not a result of his intellectual accomplishments but rather his financial investments.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">He was sued for stealing the idea for Zip2—which fired him as soon as investors got involved. He was going to run PayPal into the ground after his company merged with it—again he was fired. He invested in Tesla when it was distressed and quickly began running it into the ground.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

The biographer also asserted that Musk&#8217;s only &#8220;truly successful and novel company&#8221; is SpaceX, attributing a significant portion of its success to President Obama, whom Musk had lobbied.

Abramson went on to criticize Musk&#8217;s ventures like the Boring Company and Neuralink, labeling the former a failure and the latter embroiled in ethics investigations.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">I account Elon Musk&#39;s idea for SpaceX to be more or less the only clearly good idea he has ever publicly had, though it required heavy lifting mostly from a powerful Black man for it to become a success, which may be why Musk has so much resentment for the former president now.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The comments made by Abramson have ignited a widespread online debate, with many questioning the correlation between wealth and intelligence.
Why It Matters: This development is significant as it challenges the popular narrative around Musk&#8217;s intellectual prowess, which has been a key aspect of his public persona. 
Abramson&#8217;s comments have sparked a debate around the correlation between wealth and intelligence, a topic that has been a subject of discussion in the tech and business world. 
The outcome of this debate could potentially impact public perception of successful entrepreneurs like Musk and their business ventures.

Apple's iPhone 16E Launch, US Investment Pledge, Potential Price Hikes, And More: This Week In Appleverse

The week has been a whirlwind of economic news, with President Donald Trump&#8217;s administration making headlines for its tax proposals and plans for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Trump&#8217;s Plan to &#8216;Abolish&#8217; IRS
Howard Lutnick, the newly confirmed Commerce Secretary under President Donald Trump&#8216;s administration, has reiterated the President&#8217;s proposal to abolish the IRS. During an appearance on Fox News, Lutnick stated that Trump&#8217;s goal is to &#8220;abolish the Internal Revenue Service and let all the outsiders pay.&#8221;

Trump&#8217;s Tax Cut Could Add $4.6 Trillion To Deficit
Former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich has criticized the tax reduction plans of the Trump administration, terming them as an &#8220;absolutely shameless giveaway,&#8221; that could increase the deficit by $4.6 trillion. The proposed tax cuts for wealthy individuals and lower corporate tax rates are likely to widen the U.S. trade deficit.

Trump&#8217;s &#8216;DOGE Dividend&#8217; Proposal Criticized
President Donald Trump&#8217;s idea of using part of his cost-cutting efforts to reward taxpayers has been criticized by economist Craig Shapiro.

Trump's Tax Plans, Gold Nears $3000, And Ray Dalio's Solution To America's Debt Crisis: This Week In Economics

The past week has been a rollercoaster ride in the world of politics, with President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;at the center of several significant developments. From a decline in approval ratings to potential multi-billion dollar deals, the Trump administration has been making headlines left, right, and center. Here&#8217;s a quick round-up of the top stories.
Trump&#8217;s Approval Rating Takes a Dip
According to a recent Emerson College poll, President Trump&#8217;s approval rating has seen a decline in February. The poll reveals that 48% of nationally registered voters approve of Trump&#8217;s performance, while 42% disapprove. The remaining 10% remain neutral. This comes in the wake of several of Trump&#8217;s decisions and announcements, including a push for tariffs on countries like Canada, Mexico, and China.

Trump Administration Eyes Mineral Rights Deal with Ukraine
In a move that could potentially bring $500 billion to the U.S., President Trump is reportedly inching closer to securing a deal for substantial mineral rights in Ukraine. The President expressed optimism about finalizing the agreement amid escalating tensions between the two nations.

Trump Dismisses Top US General, Nominates Retired Officer

Trump&#8217;s Federal Workforce Downsizing Plan Gets Green Light
A federal judge has rejected an appeal by several government employee unions to halt the Trump administration's plans to significantly downsize the federal workforce. This marks another victory for Trump's Justice Department, which is currently defending against numerous lawsuits challenging various executive actions of the president.

Trump's Approval Rating Drops, Mineral Rights Deal With Ukraine, Top US General's Dismissal, And More: This Week In Politics

A call to &#8220;The Dave Ramsey Show&#8221; took an unexpected turn when Jean, a 70-year-old woman from Lexington, Kentucky, called in for financial advice. She explained that she was set to inherit $175,000 and wanted to keep it private from her husband of over 50 years. Her goal was to ensure the money went to her children and was available if her elderly mother needed care.
Dave Ramsey, known for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43741282/dave-ramsey-says-parents-shouldnt-buy-their-teenagers-cars-it-creates-ridiculous-expectations-for-life">giving honest advice</a>, quickly asked why she felt she had to hide the money and keep such a big secret. As the conversation unfolded, it became clear that Jean's marriage had been dysfunctional for decades. She described a long-standing lack of respect from her husband toward her family, leading her to believe he would try to control the inheritance if he found out about it.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dave's Take</h2>
Dave didn't hesitate to tell Jean that hiding things from a spouse is not healthy. He acknowledged that while she had every legal right to manage the money independently, deception was not the way to go.&nbsp;
"I don't think it's healthy for you, and I don't think it's healthy for him," he said.
He pointed out that the real issue wasn't just the inheritance—it was the quality of her marriage. The fact that she didn't feel safe sharing this information was a red flag. "This isn't just a precarious relationship. This is a horrible relationship," Dave said.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Protecting Her Money Without Hiding It</h2>
While Dave refused to encourage deception, he did offer Jean sound legal advice. He suggested she <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/03/37593532/estate-planning-why-you-may-want-to-consider-a-trust-instead-of-a-will">create a trust</a> and a will to make sure her children got the money. He also recommended talking to an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/03/37593532/estate-planning-why-you-may-want-to-consider-a-trust-instead-of-a-will">estate planning attorney</a> to make sure everything was done properly.
"If you do what I'm talking about," Dave assured her, "he has absolutely no access to the money unless you give it to him."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Small Compromises Create Big Problems</h2>
Beyond the financial advice, Dave and his co-host dug into a deeper issue—how Jean ended up in such an unhealthy relationship after 50 years. They emphasized that major life problems don't appear overnight. They result from small compromises, lack of communication, and avoiding difficult conversations for years.

By degrees, people allow bad situations to grow until one day, they find themselves stuck, feeling powerless. This applies not only to relationships but also to finances, careers, and personal growth. You don't just wake up in a bad place—it happens little by little when you stop being intentional.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Face Issues Head-On</h2>
Jean's story serves as a cautionary tale for anyone avoiding difficult conversations. Whether it's about money, marriage, or personal growth, ignoring problems won't make them disappear—it only makes them worse.
Dave encouraged Jean to seek counseling, talk to her pastor, and get support from people who could help her make real changes. The inheritance might have sparked the call, but the real issue was much deeper.

If You Do What I'm Talking About…'—Dave Ramsey Reacts To A Caller Who Wants To Hide Inheritance From Her Husband Of 50 Years

The Trump administration plans to overhaul food assistance programs, with the new Department of Agriculture leadership promising to fix what they call Biden-era &#8220;financial mismanagement&#8221; of food benefits.
Kailee Buller, the new USDA chief of staff, accused former department Secretary Tom Vilsack of putting politics over commonsense in managing the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. "Make no mistake, Secretary Vilsack and Deputy Under Secretary Stacy Dean put politics over commonsense, ignoring scores of USDA financial analysts and policy experts," Buller <a href="https://www.fns.usda.gov/newsroom/usda-0020.25">said in a statement</a>. "The Trump Administration will immediately correct this egregious action, making certain material weaknesses like this do not happen again."

<li>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?</li>
</ul>
However, Buller did not provide specifics on a General Accounting Office review findings or how the administration intends to fix the alleged mismanagement.
The criticism comes as House Republicans propose $230 billion in cuts across USDA programs. The reductions would likely decrease current benefit levels, not just expand work requirements, <a href="https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2025/02/12/congress/house-gop-budget-targets-snap-cuts-00203872">according to Politico</a>.

Nearly 40% of recipients in 2022 were children, with 11.6% under age 5 and 28% between ages 5 and 17. The program provides critical food benefits to supplement the grocery budgets of low-income families.

The Biden administration had increased benefits by updating the Thrifty Food Plan to reflect current food prices and dietary guidance, <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/trump-administration-announces-plans-snap-benefit-reform-2030452">according to Newsweek</a>. Republican lawmakers opposed the move, with House Agriculture Committee Chair Glenn Thompson (R-PA) attempting to restrict USDA&#8217;s authority to revise the plan in his proposed 2024 Farm Bill.
&#8220;This is not about &#8216;cutting waste, fraud, and abuse.&#8217; It&#8217;s about slashing benefits for working-class Americans to pay for tax breaks for the ultra-rich,&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/RoKhanna/status/1889824185251160172">Rep.

See Also: Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.
The proposed cuts face resistance from some Republicans in competitive districts concerned about impacts on low-income families ahead of 2026 midterms. States with the highest percentage of SNAP recipients in 2023 included Oregon, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Illinois, West Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
The department faces additional changes under Trump. On Monday, it terminated 18 contracts totaling $9 million as part of Elon Musk&#8216;s government efficiency initiatives, while reportedly removing climate change references from its website. The USDA has also seen climate program funding slashed.

SNAP Benefits In Focus: Trump Admin Targets Biden's Food Assistance Policies

A simple pizza delivery turned into an incredible story of generosity after a 20-year-old driver braved a snowstorm to deliver an order—only to get a measly $2.15 tip from a customer in an affluent neighborhood.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The $2 Tip That Started It All</h2>
On Jan. 11, Lt. Richard Craig—known as Officer Craig on TikTok—was on duty in Brownsburg, Indiana, when he spotted Connor Stephanoff trekking through the snow in sneakers and sweatpants, carrying a pizza. Curious about his situation, Craig asked how much he got tipped.
"Two dollars," Stephanoff answered. Craig was floored. "Man, cold-blooded! Two dollars!" he exclaimed in disbelief.

Realizing the harsh conditions Stephanoff was working in, Craig gave him $15 of his own money and posted the encounter on TikTok. The <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@officercraig/video/7458528700187839775">video</a>, showing Stephanoff trudging through deep snow after parking his car nearly half a mile away, quickly went viral, racking up thousands of views and comments from outraged viewers.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Turning Frustration Into Action</h2>
Craig couldn't shake the unfairness of the situation, so he launched a <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-rockstar-pizza-drivers-dedication">GoFundMe campaign</a> on Jan. 12 titled "Support Rockstar Pizza Driver's Dedication." He initially hoped to raise just $500 to reward Stephanoff's dedication.
"I would LOVE to raise at least $500 for this guy!" Craig wrote in the fundraiser description, praising Stephanoff's work ethic and commitment despite the harsh conditions.
But the internet had bigger plans.

In just over a month, donations exploded past $45,000, with more than 2,100 people chipping in. The highest donation—$1,500 from an anonymous donor—was just one example of how much support Stephanoff received from strangers who were touched by his story.
Comments flooded in, with one donor writing: "This story made my day! Keep working hard, pizza delivery guy! You're the kind of person that makes this world go ‘round." Others shared their own experiences as former delivery drivers, emphasizing how rare such dedication is these days. &#8220;I'm gonna do what that pizza customer should have done that day. Props to you for keeping cool regardless of their horrible treatment. Never stop being the amazing person that you are. I see you.&#8221;

Stephanoff, who borrows his grandmother's car to make deliveries, <a href="http://today.com/">told Today.com</a> that he now plans to use the funds to buy his own car, help his grandmother with bills, and, if there's anything left, pursue a college degree in history or business.
Reflecting on the unexpected generosity, he said, "Oh, this is real!" when he saw the donations rolling in. Meanwhile, Craig summed up the entire experience with a simple truth: "Good things come to good people who do the right thing."

'Man, Cold-Blooded! Two Dollars!' — Officer Steps Up And Crowdfunds $45K For Pizza Driver Who Got A Shockingly Low Tip In Snowstorm

Gerber Kawasaki Wealth &amp; Investment Management CEO Ross Gerber, a Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shareholder, anticipates a 50% plummet in the stock&#8217;s price this year.
What Happened: Gerber had earlier offloaded approximately $60 million worth of Tesla shares, citing concerns over the company&#8217;s dwindling popularity. 
Despite a brief spike following the 2024 election, Tesla&#8217;s shares have witnessed a 16% decline this year and have fallen 4% since Gerber&#8217;s remarks in December.
In his conversation <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-stock-price-2025-outlook-crash-elon-musks-gerber-tsla-2025-2">with</a> Insider, Gerber detailed four reasons behind his pessimistic forecast for Tesla. He expressed skepticism over Elon Musk&#8216;s ambitious goal of rolling out an autonomous taxi network in Austin, Texas, by June.
&#8220;All of this stuff is going to come to roost this year because he put this deadline on full self driving working in a couple months. It almost seems impossible for that to happen,&#8221; Gerber told the outlet.

He also voiced concerns about Tesla&#8217;s self-driving platform, which depends on cameras rather than LIDAR sensors.
Gerber also indicated that Musk&#8217;s emphasis on AI could prove harmful to Tesla. He suggested that Tesla&#8217;s primary business of car sales is slowing down due to rising competition from BYD, the world&#8217;s largest EV manufacturer based in China. 
&#8220;His 100% focus is on AI, and that&#8217;s really a detriment to Tesla more than it&#8217;s a plus for xAI and all the other businesses because he doesn&#8217;t work at Tesla anymore,&#8221; Gerber said. &#8220;If he were putting all of his time into full self-driving, I&#8217;d feel a lot more confident about Tesla.&#8221;
He also underscored the potential backlash Tesla may face owing to Musk&#8217;s close ties with President Donald Trump.
&#8220;What this does is it creates this anger. I&#8217;ve never seen this anger towards Tesla, but it&#8217;s not toward Tesla as the company, it&#8217;s because of Elon, this is the only way people can take it out,&#8221; Gerber added.
Gerber&#8217;s bearish perspective is echoed by several prominent Wall Street firms, including JPMorgan, which has set&nbsp;a $135 price target for&nbsp;Tesla stock, indicating a potential 60% downside from its current levels.
Why It Matters: Gerber&#8217;s prediction comes at a time when Tesla&#8217;s stock performance has been under scrutiny. The company&#8217;s shares have been on a downward trajectory this year, and Gerber&#8217;s comments add to the growing concerns about Tesla&#8217;s future prospects. 
His concerns about Tesla&#8217;s autonomous driving platform and the potential backlash due to Musk&#8217;s association with President Trump underscore the challenges that Tesla may face in the coming years.

Former Tesla Booster Now Warns Stock Faces Major Pain in 2025

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has reportedly withdrawn its most secure cloud storage service, Advanced Data Protection (ADP), from the UK after the British government <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/43554574/apple-faces-mounting-pressure-from-uk-government-to-grant-spying-access-to-encrypted-data-of-users-worldwide" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">demanded secret access to user data</a>.
The decision follows an order under the UK&#8217;s Investigatory Powers Act, which would have required Apple to provide a &#8220;backdoor&#8221; to iPhone backups and cloud data, enabling law enforcement to access information otherwise protected by encryption, The Financial Times reports.
The company stated that it could no longer offer ADP to new UK users, and current users would eventually be forced to disable the feature, the report further noted, citing a statement from Apple.
Since the service was introduced in December 2022, British Apple users had to opt in to benefit from the advanced security.

As of February 2025, attempts to activate ADP in the UK have now resulted in an error message.
The British government&#8217;s request to access encrypted data through a &#8220;backdoor&#8221; has drawn criticism, with experts warning it would undermine online privacy and security for UK users, BBC reports.
Prof Alan Woodward, a cybersecurity expert, called the move an &#8220;act of self-harm,&#8221; as BBC dds, while online privacy advocate Caro Robson labeled it as an unprecedented step for a company to pull a product rather than comply with a government directive.
This development highlights the tension between national security demands and digital privacy rights, raising concerns over the global impact of such policies on technology companies.

Apple Bows Out of UK's Cloud Encryption Amid Government's 'Backdoor' Demands

Singer-songwriter John Legend famously sang, &#8220;We&#8217;re just ordinary people,&#8221; but he and his wife, Chrissy Teigen, have far-from-ordinary bank accounts.
It&#8217;s just as well because after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/43300232/rebuilding-la-could-take-up-to-a-decade-according-to-experts-heres-what-a-new-la-could-look-like">L.A. wildfires</a>, the soulful crooner, 46, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/real-estate/john-legend-my-favorite-dream-7b77f0af?mod=real-estate_lead_pos1">told The Wall Street Journal</a>, the family is considering saying goodbye to the West Coast and returning to New York.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Collective Trauma</h2>
&#8220;Watching TV in the family room, our fears grew. When the Sunset fire began to expand on Jan. 9, the danger felt too close for comfort,&#8221; he told The Journal. &#8220;That night, my wife and I gathered our four kids, four dogs, and bearded dragon and drove south to a hotel in Carlsbad. We didn&#8217;t return until the following week,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Our home was safe, but many weren&#8217;t so fortunate, and the threat still looms. The fires were a collective trauma that shook everyone, including our kids.&#8221;

John Legend & Chrissy Teigen Plan To Quit LA For New York After Wildfires. They Can Take Their Pick With $100 Million Fortune

상장지수펀드(ETF)는 2024년 역사적인 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">해를 맞이하며</a> 금융 플레이북을 다시 쓰고 있다.
뱅크 오브 아메리카는 올해 ETF에 1.6조 달러의 자금이 유입되었으며, 글로벌 ETF 시장이 15.1조 달러의 운용 자산(AUM)으로 성장했다고 보고했다.
또한, ETF 출시 수는 2024년에 1,485개로 사상 최고치를 기록했으며, 기관 소유가 계속해서 증가하여 ETF가 현대 투자 전략의 초석으로 자리 잡게 되었다.
ETF 생태계가 어떻게 진화하고 있는지, 그리고 그것이 왜 중요한지 살펴보겠다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ETF 성장의 기록적인 해</h2>
숫자가 모든 것을 말해준다: 지난 5년 동안, 글로벌 ETF 시장은 연평균 19%의 견고한 성장률을 기록하며 15조 달러 이상의 운용 자산을 모았다.
1993년 이래로 총 15,866개의 ETF가 생성되었으며, 그 중 2024년에는 1,485개가 새롭게 출시되어 액티브 ETF와 미국 상장 ETF 모두에서 기록을 세웠다.
기관 투자자, 소매 거래자들, 심지어 자금이 부족한 뮤추얼 펀드까지도 유동성, 세금 효율성 및 비용 절감 혜택 때문에 ETF로 몰려들고 있다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">액티브 ETF의 부상: 균형 잡기</h2>
ETF는 역사적으로 수동적 전략이 지배해왔지만, 액티브 ETF가 그 존재감을 드러내고 있다. 액티브 펀드는 2024년에 전체 유입의 18%를 차지하여 알파 전략에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있음을 나타냈다.
그럼에도 불구하고 패시브(수동적) 펀드는 여전히 주식 펀드 자산의 50% 이상을 차지하고 있다.
실제로 93%의 ETF가 어떤 종류의 지수를 추적하지만, 액티브 관리의 매력이 혁신을 촉진하고 있다.
패시브 펀드에서 더 적극적인 전략을 찾는 투자자들도 뮤추얼 펀드에서 ETF로의 전환을 촉진하고 있다. 뱅크 오브 아메리카에 따르면, 뮤추얼 펀드가 경쟁력을 유지하기 위해 노력함에 따라 이러한 추세는 향후 몇 년 동안 가속화될 가능성이 높다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">SPY 대 VOO: 새로운 ETF 챔피언의 탄생?</h2>
SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)는 1993년 출시 이후로 가장 크고 가장 활발하게 거래되는 ETF로 남아 있다. 그러나 그 왕좌는 도전받고 있다.
Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VOO#NYSE">VOO</a>)는 SPY에 비해 6.5베이시스 포인트 낮은 총비용비율을 가지고 있으며, 2026년까지 AUM에서 SPY를 초과할 가능성이 있다.
2024년에는 VOO가 SPY보다 여섯 배 이상의 유입을 기록했다.

연방준비제도(연준)는 다가오는 연방공개시장위원회(FOMC) 회의에서 금리를 인하할 것으로 예상되며, 그 결정은 수요일 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40878710/investors-bet-on-50-basis-point-rate-cut-wall-street-analysts-urge-caution-this-is-">동부 표준시 오후 2시</a>에 발표될 예정이다.
이 중앙은행은 2023년 9월부터 연방기금 금리를 5.25%~5.5%로 유지해 왔으며, 이번 주 금리 인하는 2020년 3월 이후 처음으로 치솟는 인플레이션에 맞서기 위해 시행된 제한적인 통화 정책 기조에서 뚜렷한 전환을 의미한다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">금리 인하 기대: 연준은 25 또는 50bp를 선택할 것인가?</h3>
모두가 궁금해하는 핵심 질문은 금리 인하 폭이다. 연준이 신중하게 25bp(베이시스 포인트) 인하를 선택할 것인지, 아니면 이전 금리 인하 사이클의 시작에서처럼 과감하게 50bp 인하를 단행할 것인지가 주목된다.
현재 시장 정서는 월스트리트 경제학자들의 컨센서스와 다르다. CME의 페드워치(FedWatch) 도구에 따르면 트레이더들은 50bp 인하의 가능성을 63%로 가격에 반영하고 있다.
반면 월스트리트 애널리스트들 사이에서는 더 보수적인 25bp 인하에 대한 압도적인 합의가 존재하지만, JP모건 체이스는 50bp 인하를 예측하는 주목할 만한 예외이다.
이 미국 최대 은행에 따르면, 금리는 중립 수준보다 약 150bp 높다. 따라서 매번 회의마다 25bp 인하를 단행하면 정책이 중립적 입장으로 돌아가는 데 거의 1년이 걸린다.
이는 특히 돌이켜보면 7월 시작이 더 적절했을 수 있다는 점을 감안할 때 사이클 시작 시 금리 인하를 우선적으로 적용해야 한다는 주장을 강화한다.
연준이 25bp 또는 50bp 인하를 선택하든, 애널리스트들은 2024년과 2025년까지 일련의 인하가 계속될 것으로 예상하고 있다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">금리 인하 이전의 투자자 움직임: 투자자들이 지난주에 가장 많이 구매한 상위 10개 ETF</h3>
이번에 예상되는 금리 인하를 앞두고 투자자들은 포트폴리오를 재편성하여 금리가 낮은 환경에서 혜택을 볼 수 있는 자산으로의 전략적 이동을 나타내는 다양한 상장지수펀드(ETF)에 유입이 크게 발생했다.
이러한 트렌드를 파악하기 위해 벤징가(Benzinga)는 베타파이(VettaFi)의 etfdb.com 데이터를 분석했으며, 투자자들이 가치 중심의 ETF를 선호하는 강한 경향을 보였음을 발견했다.
그 중에서도 iShares MSCI EAFE Value ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EFV#NYSE">EFV</a>)와 SPDR Portfolio S&amp;P 500 Value ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPYV#NYSE">SPYV</a>)가 주목받으며, 이는 매크로 환경 변화에 따라 안정성과 방어적 헤지를 제공할 수 있는 자산으로의 선호를 나타낸다.
또한, 전통적인 금리 인하 수혜자인 금도 투자자들의 관심을 끌며, 지난주 동안 가격이 여러 차례 사상 최고가를 기록했고, SPDR Gold Shares(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>)로의 강력한 유입이 이를 뒷받침했다.
기술 섹터, 특히 반도체에 대한 관심도 주목할 만하며, VanEck Semiconductor ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NYSE">SMH</a>)가 상당한 유입을 보였다.
추가적으로, 투자자들은 나스닥 100에 대한 투기적이고 레버리지 전략을 추구했으며, 이는 50bp 인하 가능성이 높아졌다고 해석되었을 가능성이 있다.
투자자들은 ProShares Ultra QQQ(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QLD#NYSE">QLD</a>)와 ProShares UltraPro QQQ(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TQQQ#NYSE">TQQQ</a>)를 구매했다. QLD는 나스닥 100의 일일 성과를 두 배로 제공하고, TQQQ는 세 배로 제공한다.
마지막으로, 인기 있는 소형주 펀드인 iShares Russell 2000 ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>)가 5억 달러 이상의 유입을 받아, 투자자들이 차입 비용 감소로 혜택을 받을 것으로 예상되는 소형 국내 기업들에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있음을 나타냈다.
