    This is all true:

    Not everyone with money could build two huge successful companies (and let’s face it, while he didn’t found Tesla, the company wouldn’t be this successful without him).

    Someone without money (as in, at least multiple millions) could never do this, no matter how talented.

    Elon Musk has repeatedly beaten the odds when everyone was telling him that it’s impossible or stupid. He did this at least 3 times. But this breaks a man. He starts to think that every idea of his is a good one, especially when everyone else is telling him it’s stupid. A good example is George Lucas, prequels and sequels were the way they were because he didn’t have to listen to anyone, so he didn’t.
