I frequently read "bullied in highschool" thing affecting his adult life.
If it's affecting him this much, Why can't he get a professional psycho therapist and move on?

- zozbot234 2y agoThe problem with the easy "Musk is just a narcissist" take is that most narcissists don't do things like create a world-changing mass market for electric vehicles, reusable rocket launches, "Starship" spacecraft (which gives us capabilities that we lost with the Space Shuttle disasters, and can do a lot more besides), or indeed, all of those at once.
- kevingadd 2y agoI understand that it's easiest to associate all those achievements with Musk, but he didn't do any of those things. He isn't a specialist in EVs (or even a founder of Tesla, he came in long after it started), he's not a rocketry expert, etc. He's just a business guy. There are plenty of business guys out there.

- kurikuri 2y agoI’d argue that no narcissists did all of those things. Elon doesn’t like patents and doesn’t share credit for IP he has no connection to other than ownership, so he didn’t do any of those things.
