In a candid moment, Musk admitted he wouldn't take on the government efficiency role again if given a second chance. "Instead of joining that project, I would've focused on my companies," he reflected, hinting at the toll it took—including the infamous Tesla vehicle incidents that followed.

When pressed about the sacrifices, his response was telling: the opportunity cost was steep. Between managing SpaceX, Tesla, and his other ventures, diving into bureaucratic reform clearly came with unexpected consequences.

For someone juggling multiple billion-dollar companies, the DOGE experiment apparently wasn't worth the distraction. The crypto community's been buzzing—was the government efficiency push ever realistic, or just another high-profile detour?

Haha, the matter of opportunity cost is being quite honest... but it still feels like passing the buck? I wish I hadn't messed with that bureaucratic mess, and focus on building my own empire instead—much better. DOGE indeed looks like a classic case of opening high and closing low; efficiency improvements are just talk... The crypto community is laughing at this guy—he wants to control everything but can't manage anything properly. Instead of reforming the system, it's better to go home and count money—really. Opportunity cost is correct, but having your hand too long is just asking for trouble. Another big shot's political experiment, in the end, just hype. Always busy with this and that—Tesla even had an incident. Truly amazing. It sounds good, but in reality, it's just admitting defeat—can't handle this setup. Honest confession is good, but the grassroots folks aren't convinced.

Haha Musk is throwing the pot, to put it nicely, it is called "opportunity cost", but in fact, it is impossible to play two games DOGE has always been a cover, and the real money-making business is king This guy is a bit heart-wrenching, and the bureaucratic set is really not suitable for a character like him To put it bluntly, political shows can't hide the essence of business, we're just watching the show here Damn, Tesla has an accident and throws it to the government to work, this operation is okay The group of people in the crypto community really believed in this "efficiency reform", and now they are reacting? So do you really want to change the system, or do you want to prove that you are smart? Don't BB, concentrate on being an entrepreneur, it's much more reliable than engaging in politics This is called the typical "I'm busy so I'm not responsible", okay It's like this every time, high-profile entry and sad departure, the script is the same

Ha, this is the reality, no matter how strong a person is, he is powerless If you can't play with the system, it's better to focus on your own business, and DOGE seems to be a pitfall Everyone says efficiency, but in the end? Still busy How smart this buddy is, recognize the situation in time, and I will accept this Really, isn't it enough to take care of Tesla SpaceX? I have to wade through this muddy water... So, Web3 has to rely on ourselves, and the bureaucracy is always a black hole To put it bluntly, doing things and being an official are two different things It's no wonder if you don't regret it, what benefits can you earn by being involved, it's better to mine with peace of mind What is this called sacrifice, it is clearly a waste of time It's because of human nature, but interests come first

Ha, Musk finally admitted it, and the lack of skills is really a hard injury --- It's the rhetoric of "opportunity cost" again, to put it bluntly, it's not worth it --- The DOGE experiment was meant to be a joke, and it's not too late to admit it --- The last one is not taken care of, this is the reality --- The government efficiency can't be moved at all, blame him for not paying attention? --- Tesla's matter is outrageous when it comes to the head, and the pot is so obvious --- To put it bluntly, I am still greedy, I want fish and bear paws --- Billions of dollars of companies can't take care of it and want to reform the government, and everyone will collapse --- The crypto circle has long seen through this game --- High opportunity cost? Why did you go so early?

Who are you deceiving about selling miserable sets, if you knew you wouldn't go in, don't go in, and now you regret it? Musk really can throw the blame on DOGE for everything... I want to be a watch and want to set up an archway, right, but then again, it is really worthy of sympathy haha The government's mess should be done by professionals, and it is purely a waste of time for him to go This time I learned to be smart, don't touch politics next time, brother

What is Musk's wave of cowardice, he still has to return to his business after tossing for a long time, really The government's stall was a huge distraction for people of his level, and in the end, Tesla was also affected It's still the old saying, focus to make a lot of money, everyone

Ha, I said it earlier, that stall in the political circle is not his cup of tea --- DOGE has been doing this for a long time? It would be better to mine two more bitcoins --- This buddy really regrets it, but to be honest, who made him so good at the beginning? --- The opportunity cost is full, and there is nothing wrong with this account, it is a late realization --- Another "I shouldn't come" story, the government is really too exhausting --- So in the final analysis, it's still distracting, SpaceX and Tesla are both more fragrant than reforming the bureaucracy --- This is called being cold in high places, wanting to manage everything and not being able to manage anything in the end --- DOGE experiment? It's more like a big gamble lost --- If I had known why I had to do it now, I would have to toss for more than half a year
