I mean if DOGE was closed up tomorrow it would still be incredible resume candy. The fact you know multiple billionaires and a president means any VC fund would give you money to do anything, and you could get interviews at pretty much any startup. While I’m sure an insurance software salesman won’t be as impressed, it would look good for any fun job, and you’d have a set of skills nobody else has. You could probably make a living consulting, using AI to find corporate waste.

It might give you some contacts, but that’s far from a given. Just because Musk found you useful doesn’t mean he’s going to show loyalty to you, and that’s especially true if the venture blows up politically and you are one of the scapegoats. People don’t get to be billionaires by giving away money to everyone they meet.
