On September 30th, Nikola cancelled its planned Nikola World, but it quickly tried to easy investor's minds by putting out some new shiny hype videos and a plan full of future milestones for the next few years. This is the response of a current Nikola employee to the claims made in that milestone plan.
This is strictly my opinion, so do your own research and make up your own mind.

Nikola bankrupt in 2023…
The rabbit hole is deeper than you think.
hmmmmm… When you said owns intellectual property, That is only partially true. First name and middle name sui Generis owns intellectual property. Which means I can be call what ever the government wants to call me. Mind fucking me because my last name is ALL CAPS.. GOVERNMENT OWNED. I NEVER KNEW. Everything is staged to cause decentrilization or not?? It is to hoodwink the world. Ive been hoodwinked since birth and it has taken me 3 years to find out. wtf.
Damn Nikola seems like a piece of shit π€
Hold 1 share and wait
I have a feeling those nikola shares gonna pay for the EV factory in Tennesee for GM. GM got a factory for free!
Hey man love your video and your approach to disecting buisnessnes.Can you please do a video on ticker symbol $SPAQ and explain the relationship they have with Nicola. Thanks a ton!
I think you are right about the Badger being nixed and the GM deal going away.
Just saw something on the news feed about how the Badger does not fit into their "core" from the financial times and then another article where the CEO says they are going to do stuff even if the GM deal falls through..
Almost like they are putting out there to manage the disappointment.
Youβre source sounds like somebody who was laid off and is pissed at the company. The fact he referred to the company as βyouβ reveals a lot about his motivation.
Take it with a grain of salt "that is a t-shirt I would wear"
Hey Tom Nash….Could you make your content kid-friendly?
Tom why does the company still have an $8bn market cap.
There is no shortcut to engineering solutions. If there was then that business model would have been filled and been making products. I have no doubt there were good engineers at Nikola who believed in it, but the company was only every managed to pump stock prices to either sell the company, stocks, or in the hopes that other competitors would be able to build a competent product that they could somehow license and sell and make a profit from (like Nikola suing Tesla for stealing the design they both stole from Tesla and bought from a third party, giving them no rights to any patent whatsoever). Tesla represents what a company can do when all of the stock pumping and business BS is thrown out the window in lieu of pure unadulterated engineering R&D, while Nikola perfectly represents a technology company that ignores all of their engineers and the idea of making a product and bringing it to market.
great insight Tom!! thank you for your great work ππ½
I think probably Nikola is good.
Employee: "I don't like this Company"
Tom: "Ooohhh, harsh"
Is this the next Theranos?
could you do a video of virgin galatic? Thanks! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS.
I could have come up with all those replies and nothing substantial pointing to a real employee.. I call bullshit for clicks smh….. Not that I give a flying hoot about Nikola Motors but this is most likely π manure
my advice to all nikola employees is to get out now. If they wait until the sec and doj shuts them down they may not be able to get a job. Especially if they were in a position to know what was going on.
Hey Tom, Lordstown Motors is βallegedlyβ the new scam in town… Check it out!
Bullshit… they are waiting until December 21st 2020 when the management shares become available to sell. So they will say anything until then.
All of them should be thrown into prison for 5 years, all of the Nikola shares they own should frozen and not allowed to be sold. They are all equally complicit.
I think Nikola should make satellites. Once in orbit, you move using only gravity.
Nikola: runs out of money building factory.
Tesla: a fine addition to my collection.
You only come at Nikola after the fact, you are not uncovering anything .
Hi Tom,
All great content, so great job in being one of the first to find out about this scandal. I just feel a little divided in getting inside information, this insider my end up misleading somehow.
I would like to see analysis information about other companies as well.
Keep it up!
Why does the first insider comment start out using "you" and "you're" for Nikola and then switch to "we" and "our"?
I don't see a problem with "no IP" as people keep saying. There aren't any current competitors making fuel cell big rigs and hydrogen stations. The problem is doing it – whether with their design or anyone elses – and more importantly, doing it at a profit. Although there was a recent announcement that Toyota has partnered with another company to make fuel cell trucks for the USA. Buy there was no talk of where anyone would refuel those vehicles.
Too bad this insider doesn't know anything we the public don't know.
