Well, he is so out of depth regarding engineering a car/rockets that the only thing he can possibly do is to hire some smart guys who work for him. He literally only has a single patent for tesla, a goddamn door handle. (Oh, also, they are feeding on government subsidies)
Twitter is a much different category where you “only” have to manage people, there is no one stopping his narcissistic personality from doing harm and here is the result. Why do you give him the benefit of doubt? It could have easily been a CEO-swap without any worry from the outside. But he posted controversial shit instantly, made up a ridiculously stupid paid-verification which removed the trust from accounts, fired plenty of its talent base wrongfully! having to rehire many of them at presumably insane costs, while also don’t forget about severance. He is just terribly incompetent at his job, if that is anything more than being an ATM machine.
- quelsolaar 4y agoSo if all he did was hire some people smart people. Why havent ever other person with a bank account started a sucsessful car/rocket company? The opotunities he has had has been open to a lot of people. Besos has a lot of money and smart people but that doesnt seem to be enough to go to orbit.
- kaba0 4y agoI don’t know, who started a car/rocket company in question? Because they were both bought by Elon after the fact, including the “founding” title (because, narcissism/selling this image of successful CEO)
- quelsolaar 4y agoYou are right. Elon didnt file the incorporation papers, he only took it from a grarage startup to the worlds most valuable car maker. Clearly the founder who never shiped a car is is the one who deserves credit, not Elon.
- kaba0 4y agoAnd surely it is worth as much as all the other car manufacturers combined.. oh, maybe stock values are not to be taken to literally?
- darklion 4y agoSpaceX was co-founded by Musk, not purchased from someone else. So ding him on purchasing Tesla all you want; SpaceX is homegrown.
