Elon Musk Says Blow The Whistle On Tesla As He Debutes The Cyberwhistle

Elon Musk’s companies are famous for offering one-off novelty products that sell like hotcakes. The first of these products to capture the cultural zeitgeist was the Boring Company’s hat and flame thrower.

At the time, Elon Musk called the sale The Boring Company’s Initial Hat Offering. The Boring Company sold 50,000 hats and raised $20 million for the startup. Following this, The Boring Company introduced a flame thrower which also brought in 20 million dollars.

Musk has also offered famous Tesla-branded items, such as the Teslaquila (a Tesla-inspired tequila), Tesla-branded surfboard, S3XY short shorts, and many more items which currently sell for a significant markup on the secondary market.
