Just if anyone didn't notice the top reply is from Elon's ex-wife Justine Musk, and here response is point on. You become a billionaire by accumulating wealth. What is wealth? Wealth is something that other people want! It could be cars, gold, influence, a piece of software that saves people time. She is fundamentally correct. Elon became a millionaire by helping build a product that solved a problem many people had (how to pay each other on Ebay) Then he became a billionaire by strategically gambling his millions buildin products that people absolutely needed: low cost reusable rocketry, affordable electric vehicles, and right now, global low latency satellite internet. The power of wealth is evident when you build a product where even people that justifiably dislike you (for being a douchebag and spouting Russian propaganda) need to use your product regardless (Starlink)
