> The guy is a straight up genius I've never seen anything genius level out of Musk. He likes to think he's a genius and he's not dumb but actually genius? No.

  Building a large profitable car company is genius level. It's crazy difficult, most people thought it was impossible to compete against the scale the big existing players had.

    You might be surprised to learn Musk isn't the only employee of Tesla. Most of Tesla's profits the past decade have been carbon credits and not their cars. Like SpaceX the hard work is done by other people while Elon tweets like a 12 year old girl.

      If it's that easy everyone would do it - just hire some people and write some tweets. There are 10's/100's of billions laying around on the floor for people who can create large profitable companies. And if there is billions of easy money to be made in carbon credits everyone would be doing that too. It's crazy difficult to do what he's done. That's why there are so few companies worth so much money.
