Well said. It severely misguided to judge the value of an etrepreneur solely by their bank account. Musk is not the first person to create a car company, he didn't invent anything new but rather lifted it from existing companies, he did pretty well with rockets but then ruined it by bullshitting about Mars colonization... How does this amount to more than Ford, JPMorgan, Edison, or a zillion other past creeps have done? Making more money, alone, doesn’t cut it
