> You could, but you're not a billionaire running multiple companies that have already done a ton of things that many, many experts said could not be done. Like what? I often hear people saying that experts were saying it's impossible to land a rocket or make a good EV car. But I didn't hear experts saying that. What I did hear, is experts saying it's impossible to make it in cost effective way. And for that - economy for spacex is still to be proven. Tesla is still bleeding money (apart from occasional financially engineered quarters). That being said - while I think most of his companies are doomed to fail (due to gross mismanagement), I'm happy Elon is around. He's lying a lot, and always overestimating by an order of magnitude what he can deliver. But he does inspire people to go into science and engineering - spacex landing rockets are saturn 5 or space shuttle of this generation.
