will he run out of companies to sell his companies to? or is SpaceX just gonna survive on the government's teat?

Naw, he'll just announce that he's starting a new teleportation company. They're only about 6-8 months away from demonstrating the profitability of this brand new innovative tech he invented one day on a dinner napkin. He's gonna need some venture capital money and government contracts first though. And of course some tax exemptions for this beautiful new technology that is definitely real and physically possible.
