The man has done some questionable things in his personal life - I mean, Amber Turd? - but he has Aspergers and he works 16 hours a day, so I can let that go.

As a businessman, and a technologist, he is Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Kelly Johnson, and Bill Gates all rolled into one, and in the next 5 years, he will be worth more than the next 5 billionaires combined, and in 10 years, he'll be worth more than the next hundred billionaires combined. He will be responsible for more significant human advancement than any other human in history, by a wide margin.

I'm sure that there will be mistakes along the way - if for no other reason than because he's moving so much so fast in so many different areas, but mistakes will be addressed and improved.

Elon is focused on success and progress, not on politics or The Message, and he strongly believes in merit, which is why he has accomplished what he has. He hires the best people he can find, and he works them hard, but he built a private rocket company that was certified for human passengers in less than 10 years, and whose rocket land themselves and are reused. And he's created the only major successful new car company in the US in the last 100 years, and it's already making a crazy profit. He's inventing and commercializing most of the technology that will be needed to survive on Mars long-term - literally.

Most people only see cars, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.
