Really? Google, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, NASA, all the auto, power, and telecom companies have money. None of them were able to build better space craft, satellite internet, electric cars, charging stations than Elon was able to do. Your really think it's just money?

- aaomidi 4y agoDo we think that the CEO is behind the work of the thousands of engineers that made stuff possible? Luck of who got what jobs, and how much authority they had plays a huuuuge role.
- rubyn00bie 3y agoThe people solving hard problems when it comes to building spaceships or electric cars have had limited options when it comes to getting a paycheck to solve them. Elons ability to raise capital and fund ventures in these spaces is going to attract brilliant people. If anything everything you listed further illustrates my point, Elon exceeds in capital intensive industries. When the barrier to entry is low, he’s not so good looks at Twitter. I think genius in one place is good enough to be considered exceptional and achieve exceptional things. I don’t see why he must also be a genius in everything else… why must it be more than the money?
