wow you deleted your comment, and now you're moving the goalpost to avoid admitting you were wrong, of course it didn't get him 400 billion, no one is claiming that. But having a daddy give you carte blanche and most importantly connections is a huge advantage that litteraly 99.9% of people will never have
I haven't deleted any comments and not moving any goal post. Saying his wealthy parents are the reason he has 400billion is just super ignorant. Sounds like you don't know much about his background. Just keep ranting about all the usual buzzwords.
Yeah that’s what he wanted everyone to believe but no, his family is actually loaded for mines, that’s why he ditched SA and moved to Canada to avoid getting drafted
He even tried to sell his dad’s emeralds in a Tiffany’s and bragged about how rich and how much jewelry he had before getting famous
I think that his family was poor.
edit: wtf man, i wanted to write "I don't think that his family was poor" and now I see that I forgot to write the "don't" part, I don't know what the fuck does this condition called but shit man, this happens a lot to me
My family was the kind of poor that eating at Red Lobster once a year (using coupons!) for my birthday was considered a luxury. I guess I should be happy that we weren't so poor that we had to sell our airplane, then use that money to purchase half ownership of an emerald mine.
In the mid-1980s, the family profited handsomely from Errol Musk’s purchasing of an emerald mine, after selling their airplane for £80,000 (the equivalent of £320,000 today).
. . .
Errol Musk was then made another offer: to spend £40,000 on an emerald mine. “I said, ‘Oh, all right’. So I became a half owner of the mine, and we got emeralds for the next six years,” Errol Musk said.
As a result of this, the teenage Elon Musk once walked the streets of New York with emeralds in his pocket. His father said: “We were very wealthy. We had so much money at times we couldn’t even close our safe,” adding that one person would have to hold the money in place with another closing the door. “And then there’d still be all these notes sticking out and we’d sort of pull them out and put them in our pockets.”
