[quote=jpinpb]Thanks, flu, for your investigative info. I feel better now. And I did hear the guy is going through a divorce and is broke, but I also understood he’s only making something like 200k a month, or some such thing. So I guess “broke” is relative. Who would’ve thought.
I’d have to agree w/you. Gonna be difficult for Tesla to take off. Toyota has a lot on its plate right now. They may take it under.[/quote]
I know you’re not the gossipy type of chick. But, valleywag doesn’t count. It’s more like who’s who’s in the burnt toast of the Valley…
Apparently Musk isn’t personally self-sustaining either, claiming that he has $200,000 per month in expenses and $8,255 in income, presumably from his CEO salaries at Tesla and SpaceX. Musk’s filings also list only $650,000 in liquid assets. Given that disparity, it seems like there might be at least a bit of leeway to cut back a bit. At any rate, Musk claims that he has had to start taking personal loans from friends to make ends meet.
FWIW2: Not a slam on Elon…He’s accomplished way more than I ever will…Personally, I hope he succeeds in with both Tesla and Space X… We need more people like him to push the envelope…Kinda like Howard Hughes.
