Thoughts on Elon Musk?

[mohamed365]

An ultra successful business magnate , and one of the richest men on earth. He has been doing so much good for the world. This echo_friendly cars Tesla company he owns is one of biggest companies in the industry , and definitely I'll be looking forward to own one someday.

He owns other companies , such as , SpaceX , the Boring Company , OpenAI... etc.

What are your thoughts on him?

he is an idiot in so many ways... he said coronavirus isn't a big deal and will be gone in a couple of weeks... he is also a psychopath. He could save 10,000 children from starving to death every night before he goes to bed without even noticing a decrease in his wealth but *he chooses not to*. Billionaires are all pscyhopaths.

[zagor]

Maybe he should fund birth control instead so the 10,000 children wouldn't be there to be starving.

Good call, Zagor

He's more of a showman, a promoter than an actual innovator or businessman. The people who come up with all the good ideas are the engineers who remain in the background and do the actual hard work, while he gets up on stage and steals their credit. He's basically a conman.

[zagor]

Steals the credit? Someone has to come up with the big ideas in the first place, and find a way to finance them. Solid science needs someone to point it in the right direction. People like Bill Gates and Zuckerberg started out coding but probably haven't written code for many years. At some point you find good people to do the nitty gritty stuff.

[RedFever]

@zagor Zuckerberg didn't come up with Facebook. You do know that, right?

[zagor]

Yeah, I know the whatamacallit brothers claim he stole their idea, and got a big settlement for it. But he is the main one who carried through with the idea, and did in fact do a lot of coding. Anyway, I think MySpace already existed at the time, but frittered away their head start.

Actually he's the bigger loser of them all and has been kicked out from nearly every post he's been in and has his foot constantly in his mouth.

He's a hype beast though, it's why he has got to where he has. Not through any natural talent

[ManWithThePlan123]

He's definitely very uh... random. In a good way. I mean this man goes from making bricks to trying to be the first to send people to Mars. While he may not be inventing too much, his way of creating things in new ways is certainly impressive.

[karaspara]

Hugely successful so hats off to him not my cup of tea though from what i've seen/heard of him

[Kontrvnote]

I appreciate his efforts and I'm inspired by his success. But I'm not really a fan of him anyway.

[Kenzy009]

Fuck him, he made me loose all my money on Bitcoin by spreading fud on energy. He also brings attention away form BTC into other shitcoins while making the crypto community look like a joke

[andreasderjuengere]

He's too full of himself.

[Likes2drive]

Very smart and successful business man

[Mustermann]

Real life Bond villain.

[Clarke498]

Seems like one of the more human rich guys.

[In_Trance]

he's a media puppet like all the others

Good guy
