That was absolutely stunning. I can't even imagine someone pinning their entire hard-earned fortune on a wing and a prayer, but that's exactly what he did. Talk about balls.
Better still his start-ups are actually changing the world for the better. They're not just a bunch of smartphone apps. Today I toast the man who believed in solar power, space exploration and electric cars so much that he put he was willing to put his entire 8 figure fortune of 2 decades on the line! Elon, you're a tribute to the human spirit!
WEll said. I (very) briefly met Elon in Detroit about a year ago and only had a chance to make a joke about SpaceX's Falcon 9. He's quite the entrepreneur. I only wish more were like him and tried their hands at hard world-changing problems rather than financial 'innovations' or iPhone Apps.
