> He doesn't live a life of luxury, he's not covered from head to toe in brand name clothes. He doesn't own a private island. He could care less about that stuff. He absolutely live a life of luxury. He literally used to daily drive a McLaren F1. He stays around in his billionaire friends' mansions when he travels: https://observer.com/2021/12/elon-musk-staying-at-billionaire-friends-mansion/ https://observer.com/2021/12/elon-musk-staying-at-billionair... And he absolutely is dressed in designer cloths from head to toe for all his public events. No seriously: https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/fashion/article/elon-musk-snl https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/fashion/article/elon-musk-snl https://www.inputmag.com/style/elon-musk-tesla-air-jordan-1-nike-shoes-demarco-custom-sneakers https://www.inputmag.com/style/elon-musk-tesla-air-jordan-1-... https://www.reddit.com/r/findfashion/comments/8q43av/does_anybody_know_what_jacket_elon_musk_is/ https://www.reddit.com/r/findfashion/comments/8q43av/does_an... Elon is extremely vain so he doesn't put on anything by accidents. >If anyone really thinks he is doing all this just to get rich needs to do some more research on him. It's incredibly obvious he's doing this to be rich. He has incredibly expensive taste that goes far beyond than things like fancy yachts or private islands. He cares about money because it affords him soft power, influence, public adoration and the ability to buy things like you know... *10% of Twitter*. He is both very well accomplished and a textbook narcissist who ties his sense of self-identity with the world's perception of him. That's why he gets incredibly defensive against naysayers and he is always pushing to "one-up" others. So yeah, he absolutely cares about being rich because to him it's a validation of his own ego and also allows him to continue to purchase influence and power and attention.
