The government and private industry find him very credible when purchasing launch services. Wall St and private investors find him very credible when raising capital. And those people are far more credible than you, an anonymous commenter on HN.
- anotherman554 5y agoThey don't necessarily find the things Musk says on Twitter credible. It's like that famous rich guy who said the media should stop taking a different famous rich guy "literally."
- fallingknife 5y agoOK, yeah, but those are tweets. He uses social media like most people do, which, like most conversational speech, is not meant to be taken literally. His real business isn't done over Twitter.
- rantwasp 5y agoyou’re missing the point of GP. Musk has over promised and under delivered for a long time. Wall St/investors don’t believe Musk. They believe in Tesla and/or SpaceX. Musk is neither of those. He may be the big boss, but thousands of people work to make those things a reality. Thousands.
