That’s business… Martin and Marc didn’t take Tesla to $600 billion, Elon did.

Jobs, Wozniak, and Wayne never took apple to $3 trillion or even $1 trillion.

Gates and Allen never took Microsoft to $2.8 trillion or even $1 trillion.

They’re all still founders. Musk isn’t.

My dude, wake up. Elon is mediocre, he was just born rich, heir to precious stone mines with questionable work ethics. You can say he is good at buying things but that’s it. Read more about him from people who aren’t fans and you will understand.

Yeah fan boys are dumb but on the same hand I do think there’s a lot of obsessive negativity too, people act like he’s a bumbling clutz in every aspect of his life but I don’t think that’s really true either.

That’s great, it’s still not what founding means.

He did nothing. The engineers did design and built the cars. He was just standing on stages, telling lies to investors. It’s very rare that c-level actually had something to do with the success of a company.
