Intelligence is relative. I would wager Musk is more intelligent than the majority of Americans.

In the way that most conmen are smarter than the average American, sure.

It does take a certain amount of intelligence to trick people into thinking you're an Iron Man super genius.

But Musk has done and said a lot of stupid things that should give you pause before thinking of him as generally smart.

At the very least he's incredibly foolish.

That child totally had it coming. Nobody should be able to be out at dusk except cars.
I like to think of Musk as a kind of idiot savant, where he is extremely good at one thing, growing the share price of a business. However the idiot half is still smarter than most, we just get to see every stupid thing he is thinking for a minute. Imagine if Joe Blogs had their brain connected to a twitter account and everything they thought was posted to it. Given that's effectively Elon's condition, I think he is remarkably ereditude.

I don't know that he did that so much as fawning media and inheriting daddy's emerald fortune.

i'm guessing it's just as easy to start a company that manufactures gears for a 3% profit margin as it is to start a web site with a mac book

insane startup costs with little guarantee of return + there are at least 100 factories in china that already make what you were planning to make
