Elon Musk is no different, the fact is he went to industries that were
making no money and became nearly bankrupt while trying to make them profitable. If he did not care so deeply about doing things that benefited humanity or went to industries, he did not care about at all, he would be inclined to give up a lot sooner. His passion fueled his commitment to keep going on no matter the obstacles. Elon Musk focuses on getting into industries where there is a lot less competition, but being so innovative that he creates an entirely new market. By the time others enter the industry, he is so far ahead that he creates a virtual monopoly. He is not afraid to take risks Elon Musk poured much of the money he made from the sale of Zip2 and PayPal into his two new companies that were almost certain to fail.

Funding secured” It Had created many problems for him and as well as for the company itself. At first, he was forced out as Tesla chairman, Company had to paid $20 million fine. Musk also had to bought $20million in Tesla stock to essentially make up for the fine. Musk also agreed to have his tweets reviewed by tesla’s in-house council. Musk has since clarified that he has had conversations with Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund that led him to believe funding was if not secured-secured, then at least a likely outcome. But the fall out of all the online garbs is a reminder for Musk, or should be anyway, that he needs to remain more vigilant about the way online life can bleed into the real world.
