Well Musk went from making websites to building a space company and electric car company and now a tunnel making company.
So maybe you're underestimating abilities of some people to master multiple fields
- krapp 8y agoBeing founder and CEO of different companies doesn't imply a mastery of the fields in which those companies operate, only control of the capital they generate. Elon Musk could buy a Michelin starred restaurant tomorrow, that wouldn't suddenly make him a world class chef.
- r32a_ 8y agoDisagree. the job of a founder + CEO is not to just control capital. If Elon Musk built a 3 star Michelin restaurant himself from scratch then yes I would classify that he has mastery of the fine dining industry. You could be an amazing chef but couldn't run a restaurant if your life depended on it. Just like how there are brilliant engineers that aren't good at being CEOs of a tech company.
