From the author of Steve Jobs and other bestselling biographies, this is the astonishingly intimate story of the most fascinating and controversial innovator of our era—a rule-breaking visionary who helped to lead the world into the era of electric vehicles, private space exploration, and artificial intelligence. Oh, and took over Twitter.
When Elon Musk was a kid in South Africa, he was regularly beaten by bullies. One day a group pushed him down some concrete steps and kicked him until his face was a swollen ball of flesh. He was in the hospital for a week. But the physical scars were minor compared to the emotional ones inflicted by his father, an engineer, rogue, and charismatic fantasist.
His father’s impact on his psyche would linger. He developed into a tough yet vulnerable man-child, prone to abrupt Jekyll-and-Hyde mood swings, with an exceedingly high tolerance for risk, a craving for drama, an epic sense of mission, and a maniacal intensity that was callous and at times destructive.
At the beginning of 2022—after a year marked by SpaceX launching thirty-one rockets into orbit, Tesla selling a million cars, and him becoming the richest man on earth—Musk spoke ruefully about his compulsion to stir up dramas. “I need to shift my mindset away from being in crisis mode, which it has been for about fourteen years now, or arguably most of my life,” he said.
It was a wistful comment, not a New Year’s resolution. Even as he said it, he was secretly buying up shares of Twitter, the world’s ultimate playground. Over the years, whenever he was in a dark place, his mind went back to being bullied on the playground. Now he had the chance to own the playground.
For two years, Isaacson shadowed Musk, attended his meetings, walked his factories with him, and spent hours interviewing him, his family, friends, coworkers, and adversaries. The result is the revealing inside story, filled with amazing tales of triumphs and turmoil, that addresses the question: are the demons that drive Musk also what it takes to drive innovation and progress?

Musk the huckster. He’s been making regular announcements for over 15 years that his companies will produce fully autonomous vehicles, bases on Mars, Hyper loops, and solar power in a year or two. Each time his stock prices jump. This is fraud. Elizabeth Holmes is in prison and Trevor Milton is on his way. Musk is a million time worse and yet walks free.

Elon seems a fraud to me.
Never reject this possibility.

“Silicon Valley Success Genius” Elizebeth Holmes was able to convince so many otherwise respected and successful individuals to part with their money in exchange for 13 years of unfulfilled promises.
Investors who put a total of $632 million into Theranos included Rupert Murdoch and family-controlled Cox Enterprises Inc. which put in about $100 million each,”
Walgreens — which had planned to put blood testing powered by Theranos in drugstores nationwide — bought $140 million in Theranos convertible preferred stock and that Safeway invested $40 million — with plans to open clinics in 800 supermarkets.
Elizebeth Holmes is now in prison for making a fraction of the fake claims of Elon Musk..
