Summarized top reddit comments: - Elon Musk's $56 billion pay package is in the form of options to buy 303 million split-adjusted shares of Tesla - If Musk does not sell or exercise the options, they will expire - Shareholders may potentially sue if Musk receives the pay package despite a no vote - Musk's pay package will not directly impact Tesla's balance sheet or stock price, but it could influence investor sentiment - Musk will only receive the full $56 billion if he meets specific milestones to increase Tesla's value - Musk's involvement in other ventures like SpaceX may increase if he holds a significant percentage of Tesla, potentially boosting the company's stock price in the future.
