Without a doubt, Tesla is the cult stock of the Millennial and Gen Z generations. The young adults view Elon as a god—the Nikola Tesla of our time. Meanwhile, the Gen X and Boomer generations don’t appear to have the same fervor as their children do. I’d speculate that the majority of them don’t know how to accurately value Tesla with traditional financial metrics.

Now, when I say retire, what I really mean is having the freedom to be able to do whatever I want, whenever I want, without worry of financial burden
With the final season of Game of Thrones wrapped up and the ridiculous online outrage that ensued, I thought it was timely to put together a list of my favorite TV shows of all time. I’m sure this list will be uncontroversial and everyone will fully agree with my choices. This list will stand the test of time—where they could be watched 50 years from now and still be relevant.
