Elon Musk borrowed $1 billion from SpaceX right after Twitter acquisition: report

September 7, 2023

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk turned to SpaceX for a $1 billion loan for his dramatic acquisition of the social media company formerly known as Twitter, according to a recent report from the Wall Street Journal.

The publication sited documents reviewed by the Wall Street Journal, alleging that SpaceX approved the loan, backed by Musk’s stocks in the company.

WSJ noted that the billionaire promptly paid the loan in full, with interest, in November 2022, one month following the acquisition.
