That's also not true. Musk's parents may have been millionaires (hard to tell, this is disputed and their wealth likely changed over time) - but it's not like that's the source of Musk's money. Musk founded a company in college with his brother, his father invested 25k in the company (about 10% of total investment - so, no reason to think this investment was necessary/dispositive). Musk later sold the company for about 300 million - he reinvested that money in his future companies. Musk's wealth doesn't come from "being born into money" - it comes from being an entrepreneur. Recently there is hate at Musk for political/ideological reasons. Now people just lie and make stuff up without regard for the truth - I find it sickening. Musk was advantaged by having parents who raised him, provided for his education, and invested in his early company. He had more advantages from birth than most people in the world, but if you compare him to the average Stanford grad student (where he dropped out) I'm not certain he's in the top decile in terms of advantage. On the other hand, in terms of outcome, Musk is clearly an extreme outlier - pretending like Musk-outcomes are determined by his parents or family money is pure cope.
