    Definitely just dumb as shit. He bought PayPal, Tesla, and spacex after someone else did all the work. He has no intellectual achievements. Fortunately for him he was born into money and is a sociopath so despite being a moron he’s the richest man on earth and I have to look at his stupid face every day.

      He didn’t buy PayPal, PayPal bought his payment company

      He didn’t buy Tesla, he asked AC Propulsion to form a new EV company with him. AC Propulsion were a car modification company; roadster 1 was like an AC Propulsion car — a lotus converted to electric

      Who do you think he bought SpaceX from? I haven’t heard that before. Musk was tweeting about SpaceX’s first launch attempt as if it was his company; the shit take is he started the company because he was pissed off that Russia wouldn’t sell him a rocket. Is the new anti Musk take that he successfully bought a Russian rocket?
