The Securities and Exchange Commission clarified on Thursday that memecoins do not fall under the purview of federal securities laws, although fraudulent activities involving memecoins could still be subject to legal consequences.
What happened: The SEC's Division of Corporation Finance stated in a press release that cryptocurrencies inspired by internet memes, characters, and current trends and having limited or no functionality are not securities.
This also meant that parties involved in meme coin transactions won't be protected by federal securities laws.
"The offer and sale of meme coins does not involve an investment in an enterprise, nor is it undertaken with a reasonable expectation of profits to be derived from the entrepreneurial or managerial efforts of others," the statement read, explaining how the asset doesn't meet the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/09/28870057/howey-test-is-it-a-cryptocurrency-or-digital-security">Howey Test</a> guidelines.
That said, the SEC emphasized that the statement doesn't apply to assets that are falsely labeled meme coins to evade the laws. In that case, the SEC will "evaluate the economic realities" of the project.

Why It Matters: This announcement comes amid a surge in the volume of memecoins, with January marking a new high of over 600,000 new tokens <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto">launched in a single month.</a>
Hester Peirce, head of the SEC&#8217;s cryptocurrency task force, stated earlier this month that most memecoins <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43685991/sec-crypto-task-force-head-heister-peirce-was-asked-if-trump-melania-memecoin-launches-made-her-job-difficult-this-is-what-crypto-mom-said">may be outside the agency&#8217;s jurisdiction</a>.
President Donald Trump, who promised to bring about a more lenient regulatory environment for digital assets under his watch, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43088840/donald-and-melania-trump-memecoins-crash-after-presidential-inaugurationfirst-couples-crypto-wealth-plunges-36">launched</a> his Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>)&nbsp; just before his inauguration last month. This was followed by the Official Melania (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">MELANIA</a>) launch by First Lady Melania Trump.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, community-driven meme coins like Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) and Pepe (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">PEPE</a>) have been a hot favorite among enthusiasts, generating returns of 102% and 183% over the past year, respectively.

Top Wall Street Forecasters Revamp Integral Ad Science Price Expectations Ahead Of Q4 Earnings

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci was unfiltered in his latest comments on President Donald Trump's economic policies. In a <a href="https://x.com/Scaramucci/status/1893066567270752422">tweet</a> on Feb. 21, Scaramucci said, "The Market doesn't like Trump tariffs. Trump as Neville Chamberlain. Trump coddling Putin, berating our allies. The market doesn't like that."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Market's Reaction</h2>
Scaramucci's criticism comes as Trump moves forward with aggressive trade policies in his second term, including a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43353698/trump-slaps-25-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-loonie-peso-slide-oil-climbs">25% tariff on imports</a> from Canada and Mexico and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43462165/china-strikes-retaliatory-measures-against-us-following-trumps-10-tariffs-its-much-less-than-proportional-analyst-says">10% tariff on Chinese goods</a>. The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board has <a href="https://www.wsj.com/opinion/donald-trump-tariffs-25-percent-mexico-canada-trade-economy-84476fb2">called</a> this &#8220;one of the dumbest trade wars in history,&#8221; arguing that tariffs on allies make little sense, especially when China is the bigger economic rival.

</ul>
Trump has justified the tariffs by claiming they address trade imbalances and protect American industries, but critics say they will only disrupt key sectors like auto manufacturing and agriculture. The U.S. auto industry, which relies on an integrated supply chain across North America, could see higher costs and job losses as a result. The WSJ pointed out that in 2023 alone, the industry added over $809 billion to the U.S. economy and supported nearly 10 million jobs. Disrupting this trade flow could weaken American competitiveness.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street's Take</h2>
Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) has warned that Trump's tariffs could hurt corporate earnings and stock prices. According to the firm's chief U.S. equity strategist, David Kostin, the S&amp;P 500's earnings could drop by 1% to 2% for every 5% increase in tariffs. With tariffs already in place on key trading partners, the firm predicts a 2% to 3% decline in earnings and a potential 5% drop in the S&amp;P 500 in the near term.

"If company managements decide to absorb the higher input costs, then profit margins would be squeezed," Kostin wrote. "If companies pass along the higher costs to end customers, then sales volumes may suffer. Firms may try to push back on their suppliers and ask them to absorb part of the cost of the tariff through lower prices."
Even more concerning is the uncertainty these tariffs create. According to Goldman, during Trump's first term, the stock market fell by a combined 5% on days when new tariffs were announced, and an additional 7% on days when other countries responded with retaliatory tariffs. Economists also warn that tariffs could drive inflation back up, forcing the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates higher for longer—another potential hit to stock prices.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Comparing Trump to Neville Chamberlain</h2>
Scaramucci's reference to Neville Chamberlain, the British prime minister known for his policy of appeasement toward Adolf Hitler before World War II, signals his view that Trump is being too soft on Russia while alienating U.S. allies. The former Trump insider has been a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42254953/scaramucci-on-trump-deportation-plan-were-going-to-have-a-stock-market-crash">vocal critic</a> of the president in recent years, and his latest comments suggest he sees Trump's economic policies as a threat to both markets and international relations.
As the tariff debate continues, the market will ultimately determine whether Scaramucci's warning holds true.

Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) co-founder Michael Saylor said Thursday that he met House Financial Services Committee Chair Rep. French Hill (R-AR) and discussed plans to make the U.S. the global leader in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>).
What happened: In an X post, Saylor revealed he interacted with committee members on Tuesday. The discussion centered around digital assets and the potential for the U.S. to become a global leader in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.&nbsp;
Saylor said he also presented his &#8216;Digital Assets Framework&#8217; during the meeting, a strategy aimed at integrating digital assets into the U.S. economy.

Michael Saylor Presents 'Digital Assets Framework' To House Committe, Pitches For US Supremancy In Bitcoin, Crypto

OpenAI has launched GPT-4.5, its largest and most advanced chat model to date, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43970279/alibaba-and-deepseek-intensify-ai-showdown-challenging-openai-and-nvidias-market-dominance">amid growing competition from rivals</a> like xAI&#8216;s Grok 3 and DeepSeek.
What Happened: The company is rolling out the model first to ChatGPT Pro subscribers paying $200 monthly, with plans to extend access to Plus, Team, Enterprise, and Edu users over the coming weeks. This staggered approach reflects OpenAI&#8217;s strategy to manage ongoing GPU shortages and high demand.
The model was trained on Microsoft Corp.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Azure AI supercomputers and represents a significant shift toward scaling unsupervised learning.

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

Altman acknowledged supply constraints affecting the rollout: &#8220;We really wanted to launch it to plus and pro at the same time, but we&#8217;ve been growing a lot and are out of GPUs. We will add tens of thousands of GPUs next week and roll it out to the plus tier then.&#8221;
According to OpenAI&#8217;s blog <a href="https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-4-5/">post</a>, GPT-4.5 represents a significant advancement in scaling unsupervised learning, resulting in a broader knowledge base, improved intent understanding, and enhanced emotional intelligence. The model shows reduced hallucination rates compared to previous versions, with SimpleQA accuracy reaching 62.5% versus GPT-4&#8217;s 38.2%.

Why It Matters: Human testers preferred GPT-4.5 over GPT-4o in multiple categories, with the model winning 63.2% of professional queries and 56.8% of creative intelligence queries.
Unlike OpenAI&#8217;s reasoning-focused models like o1 and o3-mini, GPT-4.5 doesn&#8217;t incorporate &#8220;thinking before responding&#8221; capabilities. Instead, it focuses on text-based interactions without multimodal features like Voice Mode, video, and screensharing.
&#8220;This isn&#8217;t a reasoning model and won&#8217;t crush benchmarks,&#8221; Altman noted. &#8220;It&#8217;s a different kind of intelligence and there&#8217;s a magic to it I haven&#8217;t felt before.&#8221;
The model is available to developers through OpenAI&#8217;s API suite, though the company warned its compute-intensive nature makes it more expensive than GPT-4o.

Sam Altman Calls It 'Magic' As OpenAI Rolls Out GPT-4.5: 'Feels Like Talking To A Thoughtful Person To Me'

Major U.S. indices closed lower on Thursday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipping 0.45% to 43,239.50, the S&amp;P 500 losing nearly 1.6% to 5,861.57, and the Nasdaq tumbling about 2.8% to 18,544.42.
These are the top stocks that gained the attention of retail traders and investors through the day:
NVIDIA Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)
NVIDIA shares dipped 8.48% to close at $120.15 after hitting an intraday high of $135.01 and low of $120.01. The 52-week range for the stock is $153.13 to $75.61. Despite posting record revenue of $39.3 billion for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/02/44012061/nvidia-shares-dip-despite-strong-q4-earnings-beat-record-revenue-whats-going-on">fourth quarter</a>, the stock experienced a sell-off.

Nvidia, AMD, Archer Aviation, Rocket Lab, And Tesla: Why Are These 5 Stocks On Investors' Radars Today

Alphabet Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) subsidiary Google is implementing new layoffs in its human resources and cloud divisions as part of ongoing cost-cutting efforts while it increases investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure.
What Happened: The company will offer voluntary buyouts to U.S.-based employees in its &#8220;People Operations&#8221; division starting in March, according to an internal memo from HR chief Fiona Cicconi <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/27/google-makes-cuts-to-hr-and-cloud-units.html">viewed</a> by CNBC. Mid to senior-level employees may receive severance packages of 14 weeks&#8217; salary plus one additional week for each year of service.
Separately, Google&#8217;s cloud unit is facing layoffs primarily affecting operations support staff. Some roles are being relocated to India and Mexico City, though the company stated its largest employee presence for cloud will remain in the U.S.
Google did not immediately respond to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: The cloud division, which saw 30% revenue growth in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43479274/alphabet-q4-earnings-highlights-ai-cloud-youtube-momentum-continues-capex-guidance-sends-shares-lower">the fourth quarter</a> compared to the previous year, remains a high-growth business unit benefiting from AI products. Alphabet has been generating profit from its cloud business while competing with market leaders Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure.
These reductions follow comments from CFO Anat Ashkenazi, who recently identified cost-cutting as a top priority while Google expands AI infrastructure spending in 2025. After <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43479274/alphabet-q4-earnings-highlights-ai-cloud-youtube-momentum-continues-capex-guidance-sends-shares-lower">reporting fourth-quarter revenue</a> that missed expectations on Feb. 3, Ashkenazi noted Google &#8220;exited the year with more demand than we had available capacity&#8221; for AI products.
These latest cuts follow January&#8217;s announcement of buyout offers to employees in Google&#8217;s &#8220;Platforms and Devices&#8221; unit, which houses over 25,000 full-time employees working on products including Android, Chrome, Pixel, and Nest.
Price Action: Alphabet Inc. Class A closed at $168.50, down 2.45%, and dipped to $168.38 after hours on Thursday. Class C ended at $170.21, down 2.57%, slipping to $170.16 after hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

After a Delaware judge struck down his nearly $100 billion compensation package from Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Musk wasted no time criticizing the state's Court of Chancery, calling it "<a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1863728056474419580">absolute corrupt</a>."&nbsp;
His frustration didn't stop there—Tesla has now reincorporated in Texas, and his fight has put a spotlight on Delaware's role as the preferred home for corporate America.\

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Delaware's Legal Reputation Faces Uncertainty</h2>
For decades, Delaware has been the top choice for business incorporations, with roughly <a href="https://corp.delaware.gov/stats/">68% of Fortune 500 companies registered there</a>. But with Musk leading the charge, other companies are reconsidering their ties to the state.&nbsp;
Bill Ackman's hedge fund, Pershing Square, is planning a move to Texas or Nevada, and that reports say that Meta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) is weighing a similar decision. Now, Delaware lawmakers are scrambling to stop what could become a corporate exodus.
To address growing concerns, Delaware lawmakers this month introduced <a href="https://legis.delaware.gov/BillDetail/141857">Senate Bill 21</a>, a proposal aimed at making the state's corporate laws more appealing to executives like Musk, Meta CEO&nbsp; Mark Zuckerberg, and Ackman.&nbsp;
Trending: Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a>
<a href="https://www.reuters.com/legal/delaware-bill-would-limit-investor-lawsuits-companies-threaten-leave-state-2025-02-18/">According to Reuters</a>, the bill includes changes that would limit investor lawsuits against executives and redefine shareholder liabilities, making it harder for minority shareholders to challenge corporate decisions.
The push for reform comes as Delaware faces pressure to maintain its reputation as the go-to state for corporations. The state generates <a href="https://corp.delaware.gov/stats/">billions </a>from business registrations and corporate legal fees, so keeping companies from leaving is a top priority.
Lawrence Hamermesh, professor emeritus at Delaware Law School and one of the bill's authors, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/02/21/elon-musk-tesla-pay-package-delaware-courts-change-state-law/">told Fortune</a> that Delaware needed to act fast.&nbsp;
"An unprecedented exigent risk required an unprecedented expedited process," he said, emphasizing that many companies are currently reviewing proxy statements ahead of their shareholder meetings this spring—meaning decisions to reincorporate could happen soon.

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>
Not everyone is convinced Senate Bill 21 is the right move. According to <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/82e970d5-ea60-4932-81b5-2b6d5c28b86b">The Financial Times</a>, corporate governance expert Charles Elson argues that weakening shareholder protections could damage Delaware's credibility.&nbsp;
He described the changes as a dramatic upheaval in norms in Delaware where typically courts develop transaction standards through opinions.
Ann Lipton, a professor in business law and entrepreneurship at Tulane University Law School and The Murphy Institute <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/85eccee4-3890-4c25-bd89-eb522b95efb9">also weighed in</a>, warning that altering Delaware's laws to accommodate a handful of<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43770418/billionaire-bill-ackman-bets-big-with-this-2-billion-stake-heres-why-he-thinks-its-still-a-sleeping-giant"> billionaires</a> could create a more volatile and less investor-friendly market.
For now, Delaware lawmakers insist the bill isn't about winning Musk back. State Sen. Bryan Townsend, the bill's primary sponsor, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/legal/delaware-bill-would-limit-investor-lawsuits-companies-threaten-leave-state-2025-02-18/">told Reuters</a> that the goal is to ensure the state remains a corporate hub.&nbsp;

Analyst Notes: Popular on-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant noted that the NVT Golden Cross was below -2.4, suggesting oversold conditions and a possible market bottom.
"Given these oversold conditions, if a rebound occurs, the 111-day moving average (DMA) at $96.895 may act as resistance during any potential price increase," the analyst added.
The NVT ratio is a metric that compares a cryptocurrency's market capitalization to its on-chain transaction volume. It can be seen as the equivalent of the price-to-earnings ratio.

The SPOT Trade
Ark Invest&#8217;s decision to trade Spotify&#8217;s shares comes amidst a turbulent time for the music streaming giant. Spotify has recently faced stiff competition from Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) YouTube, which announced that it has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43998792/youtube-surpasses-spotify-with-1-billion-monthly-podcast-users-ceo-pledges-enhanced-monetization-for-creators">surpassed Spotify&#8217;s monthly active podcast users</a>, reaching over 1 billion. 
Spotify&#8217;s CEO, Daniel Ek, has been in a four-year battle with Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), accusing the tech giant of flouting the European Union&#8217;s Big Tech rules.

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta Wants To Do An AI App But Sam Altman Wants To Pull A 'Reverse Uno' Card: 'Maybe We'll Do A Social App'

Americans&#8217; inflation expectations have surged to 4.3%, marking one of the sharpest three-month increases since 1979, according to new data that has economists concerned about price stability.
The <a href="https://data.sca.isr.umich.edu/fetchdoc.php?docid=77942#:~:text=Between%20October%202024%20and%20January,remain%20higher%20than%20pre%2D%20pandemic.">University of Michigan&#8217;s consumer survey</a> for January shows median one-year inflation expectations have climbed 1.7% since November&#8217;s election, <a href="https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2025/02/18/american-inflation-looks-increasingly-worrying">The Economist reported on Tuesday</a>. It represents a joint-largest quarterly increase in over four decades, rivaling periods when inflation hit double digits.
Market indicators reflect similar concerns. One- and two-year breakeven inflation rates, calculated from Treasury yield differences, have risen 1.7% and 0.8% respectively since November.

</ul>
The jump exceeds historical patterns. According to The Economist&#8217;s model, approximately 80% of variation in quarterly inflation expectations typically correlates with current inflation rates and fuel prices. If the traditional relationships held, expectations would be nearly a full percentage point lower.
Analysts attribute the disconnect primarily to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/02/43821214/trump-calls-for-more-tariffs-federal-reserve-minutes-on-deck-whats-driving-markets-wednesday">President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariff rhetoric</a>. Consumer uncertainty about inflation has reached its highest level since 1980, with those opposed to tariffs expecting inflation near 5%.
&#8220;This is the riskiest period for inflation policy since the early Biden administration,&#8221; former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers told The Economist, referencing the period preceding four-decade inflation highs.

Signs suggest the expectations may become self-fulfilling. American wages grew at an annualized 5.9% in January, while over 20% of Michigan survey respondents—the highest proportion in three decades—report accelerating major purchases to beat anticipated price increases.
Federal Reserve officials have expressed concern. &#8220;When inflation expectations become unanchored, central banks often can restore price stability only at a great economic cost,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dallasfed.org/news/speeches/logan/2025/lkl250206">Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan recently warned</a>. The uncertainty, she added, serves as &#8220;a reminder that expectations won&#8217;t stay anchored forever on their own.&#8221;

Longer-term inflation expectations show mixed signals. While the &#8220;five-year, five-year forward&#8221; measure favored by central bankers remains stable, five-year consumer expectations have climbed to 3.3%, exceeding recent peaks.
A partisan divide has emerged in longer-term outlooks, with Democrats now expecting 4.2% average price increases over the next five years. Research suggests similar Republican concerns during the pandemic contributed to subsequent inflation.

Americans Now Expect 4.3% Inflation—An Alarming Jump In Just 3 Months

On Thursday, a U.S. federal judge directed the Office of Personnel Management to retract memos that encouraged federal agencies to fire probationary employees. The judge declared these memos likely to be illegal.
What Happened: U.S. District Judge William Alsup ruled that the OPM must notify agencies that it lacks the power to insist on the termination of these employees. However, he stopped short of directly ordering the agencies to cease terminations, <a href="https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/5168222-judge-orders-recission-of-opm-memos-directing-agencies-to-fire-probationary-employees/">reported</a> The Hill.
Currently, the ruling is applicable only to agencies linked&nbsp;to the plaintiffs in the&nbsp;lawsuit. However, Judge Alsup advised the government to extend the notification to other agencies as well.
"The agencies could thumb their&nbsp;nose at OPM if they&nbsp;wanted to," Alsup stated, highlighting OPM&#8217;s limited authority over the employment decisions of other agencies.
A group of government employee unions had sued the OPM over its directive for agency leaders to fire employees still in their probationary period. This directive, which could have impacted up to 200,000 employees, resulted in a swift downsizing of the workforce across multiple agencies. Meanwhile, cuts are still on the cards for agencies, including the Defense Department.
Assistant U.S. Attorney&nbsp;Kelsey Helland&nbsp;contended that the plaintiffs were mistaking a "request" by OPM for an "order," suggesting that this misunderstanding significantly influences the case.
Judge Alsup is set to issue an opinion with additional details in the near future. An evidentiary hearing is slated for next month, where OPM acting director Charles Ezell is expected to testify.

Nearly 1% Of Country&#8217;s Population Signs Petition To Revoke Citizenship</a>
Why It Matters: This legal development comes in the wake of a series of events that have stirred the U.S. defense sector. In December, Goldman Sachs downgraded a key player in the industry and reiterated a bearish outlook on other defense stocks, citing risks tied to a slowing Pentagon budget and margin pressures <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42468190/defense-stocks-face-headwinds-as-trumps-doge-targets-spending-cuts-goldman-sachs-downgrades-general-dynamics-to-sell">under the watch</a> of Elon Musk-associated Department of Government Efficiency.
Over 20 civil service employees have resigned from the DOGE, refusing to participate in the dismantling of what they termed as essential public infrastructure. This was followed by an executive order by President Donald Trump mandating all federal agencies to appoint a DOGE representative to oversee spending and ensure transparency, thereby increasing<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43995014/elon-musks-influence-over-the-government-set-to-increase-trump-orders-all-federal-agencies-to-appoint-a-doge-commissar"> </a>Musk&#8217;s<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43995014/elon-musks-influence-over-the-government-set-to-increase-trump-orders-all-federal-agencies-to-appoint-a-doge-commissar"> influence over government operations</a>.

But according to his second ex-wife, Talulah Riley, he might actually be one.
In the. 2022 <a href="https://youtube.com/shorts/pF-Q0ZZQVg4?si=2Rut_ksokpPTj_yh">BBC documentary series</a>, "The Elon Musk Show," Riley was asked how she would describe her ex-husband to an alien. Her response was as sharp as it was telling:
"Well, I think of Elon as the alien. I'd say, ‘Meet your fellow countryman,'" she said, laughing. She added that Musk has always seemed to perceive the world differently from others.

</ul>
"I always used to think of him as a sort of benevolent alien," she continued. "You know, he would be, ‘Hello.' He could always see the world was going in a way that I just did not understand. And I love having that perspective, and I am grateful for every part of that. I hope he gets humanity to Mars because I think that is his reason for being more than any other."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's Obsession With Mars</h2>
Riley's comment wasn't just a joke—it struck at the core of Musk's ultimate mission. For years, he has argued that humanity faces two choices:
"There are two fundamental paths," Musk said in the documentary. "One path is we stay on Earth forever, and there will be some eventual extinction event. The alternative is to become a multi-planet species. That's what we want."

This isn't just science fiction to him. SpaceX, the company he founded in 2002, is working aggressively to make <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43905539/elon-musk-led-spacex-to-undertake-starships-8th-test-flight-on-friday">interplanetary travel a reality</a>. The company's fully reusable Starship rocket—currently in development—is designed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40778284/elon-musk-says-almost-anyone-can-afford-a-trip-to-mars-at-100-000-to-500-000-even-if-it-means-se">transport humans to Mars</a>, with Musk envisioning a self-sustaining colony in the next few decades.
His logic? Earth's days are numbered, whether due to natural disasters, nuclear war, or an asteroid impact. Expanding to other planets, he believes, is humanity's only insurance policy.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The ‘Time-Traveling Vampire Alien'</h2>
Of course, Musk is no stranger to embracing the idea that he might not be from this planet. When an X user noticed that his profile had been "verified since 3000 BCE," Musk leaned into the joke, replying:
"See, this proves that I'm a time-traveling vampire alien! Even though I'm 5000 years old, I think I look much younger."

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>
It's the kind of playful response that keeps social media hooked on Musk, but underneath the humor, there's a serious commitment to his Mars mission. Whether it happens in his lifetime or not, Musk is determined to push the limits of what's possible—making Riley's quip about him being an alien seem all the more fitting.
After all, if he succeeds, he won't just be a billionaire or a tech mogul. He'll be the man who took humanity to another planet. And that? That's as alien as it gets.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Royal Caribbean Gr Stock In The Last 5 Years

When it comes to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43759368/silicon-valley-millionaire-asks-dave-ramsey-if-he-should-buy-a-250000-lamborghini-heres-what-car-nut-ramsey-always-asks-himself">big purchases</a> like a new car, even high earners can wrestle with whether they are spending too much. That was the case for Landon, a 27-year-old caller to &#8220;The Ramsey Show,&#8221; who recently bought a 2018 Mercedes S-Class for $35,000. Despite having a household income of $250,000 and a net worth of $750,000, Landon couldn't shake the feeling that he had made a mistake.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Does Spending $35K on a Car Make Financial Sense?</h2>
Landon and his wife are in a strong financial position. They are in what Dave Ramsey refers to as &#8220;Baby Step 7,&#8221; meaning they have no debt, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/25/02/43789996/dave-ramsey-says-a-paid-off-mortgage-is-the-new-status-symbol-not-a-bmw-do-you-agree">paid-off home</a>, and are focused on building wealth and giving generously. Despite that, Landon felt uneasy about sinking money into something that depreciates in value.

<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.</li>
</ul>
Ramsey show co-hosts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/41824000/are-you-broke-average-or-wealthy-dave-ramsey-host-breaks-down-the-financial-behaviors-that-defin">George Kamel</a> and Ken Coleman reassured Landon that his purchase was well within reasonable spending limits. A common rule of thumb on &#8220;The Ramsey Show&#8221; is that the total value of a household's vehicles should not exceed half of their annual income. With $45,000 total tied up in vehicles and an income of $250,000, Landon is well under that threshold.
"Dave would have said, &#8216;You should have bought a nicer car!&#8217;' Kamel remarked. "You&#8217;re not doing anything wrong."&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Emotional Side of Money</h2>
While Landon's concern appeared to be financial, Coleman and Kamel dug deeper and suggested that his discomfort stemmed from an emotional struggle rather than a financial misstep. They pointed out that he had spent years being financially aggressive—paying off his home and saving diligently—which made it difficult for him to shift into a mindset where he could enjoy some of his wealth.
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mark-cubans-advice-for-lotto-winners">Many are surprised by Mark Cuban's advice for lotto winners: Cash or annuity?</a>
Coleman identified shame as a possible factor, explaining that some people feel guilty about spending money, even when they have more than enough. Landon admitted that his financial discipline made it hard for him to relax when making large purchases.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Balanced Approach to Money</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43768530/should-married-couples-split-expenses-dave-ramsey-says-no-youre-married-not-roommates">Ramsey</a> often emphasizes that financial success is about more than just saving—it's about balancing saving, spending, and giving. Kamel explained that if someone only saves and never spends, they can end up depriving themselves unnecessarily.
Ultimately, the hosts reassured Landon that he wasn't making an irresponsible decision. Kamel reminded him that as his investments continue to grow, his home will naturally make up a smaller percentage of his net worth over time. "You got another 30 to 40 years of working for ya and investing to build wealth," he said. "And so, in the meantime, you have to do something called enjoying life."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Much Should You Spend On A Car Given Your Income?</h2>
If you're in a similar position—earning well, debt-free, and hesitant about spending—it's worth considering a few key points:
<ul>
<li>Do the math: Ramsey's team advises that all vehicles in your household don't exceed half of your annual income.</li>
<li>Check your emotions: If guilt or fear is driving your hesitation, ask yourself whether your concerns are based on real financial risks or ingrained habits.</li>
<li>Find balance: A strong financial plan includes saving, spending, and giving in reasonable proportions.</li>
</ul>
For Landon, the verdict was clear: spending $35,000 on a car wasn't reckless—it was simply an adjustment to a new financial phase. And while the car will depreciate, the financial wisdom he's gained will last far longer
