Going where nobody else will and slogging through the swamp of sorrow to come out the other side clean can be an amazing strategy... if it pans out.
If it works out you look like a hero, if it doesn't you look like a fool.
I look at it as picking the mountain you want to climb. You can't climb every mountain at once. Some are taller than others, some might have amazing views at the top, or gold hidden inside, and some have bears that will eat you alive. Most importantly, you can't climb two mountains at once and it takes time to get down off of one mountain to climb the next.
Elon Musk is pretty good at picking mountains to climb, but he also has the resources to climb them and the will do to so. He reminds me a lot of Richard Branson or Donald Trump. When you have ambition, talent, and capital you can make a lot happen.
