    Always remember apartheid Elon grew up with massive wealth and sold a emerald he randomly found in his dads luggage while visiting New York, read this: https://www.businessinsider.co.za/elon-musk-sells-the-family-emeralds-in-new-york-2018-2

    His (Elon's) father, Errol Musk, had a casual attitude towards the family’s considerable wealth, including the stones that came from the Zambian emerald mine in which Errol owned a half share.

    Elon, by his father’s recollection then probably 16 years old, and his brother Kimbal, decided to sell emeralds to Tiffany & Co. on Fifth Avenue in New York – one of the world's most famous jewellers – as his father lay sleeping. "They just walked into Tiffany’s and said, ‘Do you want to buy some emeralds?’" Errol recalled in an interview with Business Insider South Africa. "And they sold two emeralds, one was for $800 and I think the other one was for $1,200."

    “We were very wealthy,” says Errol. “We had so much money at times we couldn't even close our safe, with one person holding the money in place, another other would slam 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"

    Also remember when Musk said America would have close to zero new coronavirus cases by the end of April in an attempt to open his factory. Pure scum.
