So you gave them an interest free loan for a few years?
Pretty much, yeah. Assuming 5% interest for the 25 months they've had it, Tesla has made a little over $10 off my deposit so far. I hope they enjoy two happy meals with their gains. I'll be fine.
A quick google search shows that Tesla has anything from "more than 1 million" to "more than 1.25 million" deposits placed, so it's actually more like two million happy meals that Musk is enjoying.
