Elon is not about making money. He is about making things, and he is very good at that. He is a combination of Howard Hughes, Henry Ford and Tony Stark (all of them eccentric geniuses).
Great Men, (and Elon is both an ass and a great man), attract passionate adoration and passionate hatred. I can't figure out how he even sleeps at night while balancing Tesla, SpaceX, The Boring Company, Optimus, Power Wall, Starlink, and who knows what else.
All this while procreating at a furious rate and inserting himself into national and international politics. And I believe I read that he is autistic.
I've said before, I think he is an alien.
