If it’s so easy why aren’t you a billionaire?

In reality running a company is a dog shit unrewarding chore. You need to build something really extraordinary to punch into mainstream and hope competition won’t catch up

you need to build something really extraordinary

Is that what Elon Musk did? Give me a fucking break.

Is that what all of these people did? theguardian.com/…/all-billionaires-under-30-have-…

All billionaires under 30 have inherited their wealth, research finds

Fifteen young billionaires are among the first wave of a $5.2tn transfer of wealth by the ageing super-rich

Is that what Elon Musk did?

Under him Tesla built an electric car that didn’t look like a soapbox on wheels. 10 years ago same people who hate him now, praised him like a deity for that. Under him starlink was built and works world wide.

Musk is the biggest case of falling out of grace after getting into politics

Look, you can’t even say he created Tesla. The man has never created anything worthwhile in his miserable life.
Nuance is foreign concept for this one. Building a car isn’t a one person endeavor
The car designs were already done by the time he bought the company. His first pure Musk design was the Cybertruck, a soapbox on wheels.
