And factually inaccurate. Musk in no way founded or co-founded PayPal. The trademarks were registered, the MVP was running, when the company building it merged with Musk's failing online banking plan.
He was then made CEO by virtue of being the biggest shareholder. For four months.
Four months later, the Board fired him in his absence on the morning he left for his honeymoon.
How badly do you have to fuck up to not be asked to resign but fired, and fired two days after your wedding, leaving for your honeymoon? Well, Musk tried by insisting the Java app that was up and running was trashcanned and PayPal was rewritten in Classic ASP, because Musk understood that and not Java - that'll do it, apparently.
