I like his style

Great initiative from the great richest man on Earth. Elon musk idea to monetise the blue thick is good. Even the $8 is much avoidable if not the bad economy system APC is running in Nigeria, Nigerians dominate Twitter in a bigger way. With the monetising the blue thick with $8, contents creators and companies will be much valuable cos’ the People will value them more in their business. Elon musk said verified Twitter with the blue thick will be monetised, so Twitter for me is still free to used and do business with.

That's the psychology of totalitarian
capitalists. They always mistake
themselves for GOD, until they crash.

You are correct!

WibusJaga:

We would achieve all what you listed & much more, with a more tactful response.

You are right . But how do you advise a self made billionaire ? He can get away easily with comments like that and the people he subtly insulted will still patronize him . Why ? Because most people want to associate with a success

Tolumiide:
₦8000 for a month tweets. I would rather buy a parrot

do you know mathematics? 8 dollars is less than 5000 naira

gypsey:
Mr Musk is a genius, he has already known how to make more cash before he bought twitter, He will make so much money from twitter. For just surscribing people must pay $8

Subscription will still be free . But if you want to be verified ( blue tick ) you must pay . It will also come with some added features that ordinary subscribers won’t have

See poor man wailing, and wishing a wealthy billionaire crashes, As Musk says keep wailing it is still $8

It's a smart move for Elon musk, but still risky. People who love to have the blue tick on their profile but dint have the followership can now proudly display the badge, if they have the money. While, the elite with the blue tick are crying foul, after working up their profile to get the blue tick; only for the requirement to be reduced to a mere $8 per month. They feel like they've been shortchanged for the hard work they've done to get their profile to the stage it is, while the extremist elite will think as far as to ask the question why musk will group them amongst the commoners. Imagine sharing a blue tick with someone that has less than 100 followers on twitter, but has the money to purchase the blue tick. The inherent thing I learn from this tho, nothing is ever truly free, not even a blue tick.

All businesses are risks, to make money you must take risks and we are not in the position of giving Mr Musk business advices He is currently the richest man on earth. Mr Musk is q genius and as he has said, people can keep complaining but it is still $8

I'm NOT poor by any standard. But I can
see that your intellect is too low to.
grasp this philosophy. And of course
too advanced for for online goons like
you who scroll up and down the online
highway looking who to insult that they
collect curses.

You are a poor man, see how you are still wailing, poor people always takes offense at any slit chances and philosophical, in their poor minds they are always imagining things weirdly. Show me where i insulted you. Keep wailing, Elon Musk will never crash he worked hard to get where he is go look for work, don't come on here to wish Mr Musk crashes. You can wail all you like it is still $8 as Mr Musk said. Curses my ass, typical poverty mentality, if you can curse people use the same curse magic to invent and contribute positively in your society fool!

Officialgarri:
Elon Musk is a typical example of a street clown who doubles as a business genius.
You just can't do away with him no matter how pissed.
But I think $8 for a full month is too little amount.

You shouldn't have a bragging right with just $8 dollars.

yes that's the whole point of the $8, ordinary people can afford it too. So lots of verified account

MALIGNANTGuest:

You are correct!

Well.. Musk will never crash, he paid $44 billion for twitter he didn't steal it, I am sure he worked hard to become what he is today, Mr Musk was bullied in school becuase of his Asperges, now he managed to make it, some poor people are wishing he crashes, i don't get it.

Elon musk is a terrible businessman. . E no send you

He wants everyone to be able to afford it, He might up the amount once he lures people in with just $8. Musk is a genius.

Absolutely! Musk wants everyone to be able to afford $8

Good.

Dozis:
RIP Twitter.
Capitalism killed it

In this case it was resurrected!!! They already ran out of ideas and was being used by the so established minds to oppress the peasants.

Anyone with brain will understand what Elon Musk is trying to do.

He is trying to monetize Twitter to be like prime subscription for everybody. For now he’s using blue tick subscription as a decoy to get more people to subscribe monthly on Twitter.

I know y'all gon miss me

Sammy5413:
Twitter now in the wrong hands

I'm leaving Twitter but first I'm going to tweet about leaving Twitter then I'm going to stick around to see what everybody thinks about me leaving Twitter

Tolumiide:
₦8000 for a month tweets. I would rather buy a parrot

you don already equate $1 to 1000 naira

Niom:
That special blue mark that seemed like a big deal won't have value again.

Yahoo boys will colonize it

Celebrities no go use am dey brag again...

Another angle

illuminutty:
Gbam

You don't like it? Get deVerified. Let big bois like us pay and brag. The Blue tick is not for the hungry and the poor.

8 dollar is way too small.

He should have made it 1k dollar per month.

So that we can separate men from fvck boys

FreeStuffsNG:
Thank you Elon Musk.
By the time they pay, they will value it more and use it for more constructive engagement.

Those lazy youths idlying away on SM for idle gists to insult and mock folks old enough to be their parents may now stop receiving curses.

Smart business man doing business, as usual.
