Musk was forced out as CEO and so began his lost years in which he decided to go it alone and baffled friends by investing his fortune in rockets and electric cars. He started a pair of huge dot-com successes, including PayPal, which eBay acquired for $1.5 billion in 2002. In the midst of these rough conditions, and the violence of apartheid South Africa, Musk still thrived academically and attended the University of Pennsylvania, where he paid his own way through school by turning his house into a club and throwing massive parties.
He was a freakishly bright kid who was bullied brutally at school, and abused by his father. The personal tale of Musk’s life comes with all the trappings one associates with a great, drama-filled story. He is the real-life inspiration for the Iron Man series of films starring Robert Downey Junior. Musk wants to save our planet he wants to send citizens into space, to form a colony on Mars he wants to make money while doing these things and he wants us all to know about it. South African born Elon Musk is the renowned entrepreneur and innovator behind PayPal, SpaceX, Tesla, and SolarCity.
