Sorry but Musk was an insufferable individual long before he came into his current wealth (the most prominent examples I can think of is the manner in which he exaggerated his credentials/education).
It might be more accurate to suppose that certain types of people are more likely to come into this sort of wealth.
- maxbond 4y agoHe was quite wealthy when he faked those credentials. Of course, Musk was always quite wealthy, so that's not saying much. Would he be a jerk in a universe where he wasn't a successful entrepreneur? Maybe, I'm willing to accept the premise. Would he be an increasingly paranoid and conspiratorial authoritarian? Probably not. Do certain personality types tend to become wealthy more often than others? I'd say probably. But I don't think that's at odds with what I'm saying.
