The difference between Elon and most other CEOs is simple and once you see it, it’s hard to unsee it.
He does NOT lead from an ivory tower. He’s not sitting ten floors up reading PowerPoints and giving orders through layers of management.
He’s down in the trenches. On the factory floor. In engineering reviews at 2 a.m. building and asking why over and over until the truth shows itself from first principles.
He builds with his people and fights with his people.
That’s why when you hear him speak, whether it’s about rockets, batteries, AI, manufacturing, or autonomy, he can go super deep. Just watch any interview. The answers never sound rehearsed like other CEOs.
And this is why despite the chaotic work life many are signing up for, the best and brightest want to work with and for him. And as an investor, this is the #1 thing that matters to me - the founder and CEO. Bc when the CEO understands the product better than anyone else in the room, you’re betting on execution.
And anyone can have ideas or build sexy presentations, but the MOST important is execution.
Execution is the toughest thing in business.
That’s what gives me confidence in him through all the ups and downs we’ve been through.
He’s a leader who’s in the fight every single day, building the future alongside his team.
This is very rare.
And that’s why he’s different.
And that’s why I’m willing to bet on him, time and time again.

I think people need to reframe the conversation around Elon’s “net worth.” As his net worth approaches $1 trillion, it’s important to understand the bigger picture. Elon earned his wealth the right way: by building companies and creating products and services that people genuinely love, while generating enormous shareholder value. He didn’t steal. He didn’t cheat. He built and created.
Elon isn’t accumulating wealth to buy yachts, houses, or vacations. His capital is primarily a tool to pursue outcomes he believes are best for humanity’s long-term future, most notably making life multi-planetary. Building on Mars will be expensive, and much of Elon's wealth will ultimately go towards that, but he’s also investing heavily here on Earth, having created over 600,000 jobs so far across his companies and supply chains.
Elon is the best capital allocator in the world, and has created multiple world-changing technologies that have benefited humanity. That’s why it’s ironic when some people say he should pay more taxes (almost all of his wealth is unrealized stock gains), because that capital would simply be redirected to the government, one of the worst capital allocators.
He paid the single largest tax bill in history in 2021 ($11B) and will likely pay an even bigger one in the future when he exercises the stock options from his 2018 Tesla CEO Performance Award, which are set to expire in January 2028.
The villainization of Elon by legacy media and others will only intensify as his wealth grows. Instead, what they should focus on is the massive value he has created for others and all the good his companies are doing:
• Tesla: Accelerating toward a sustainable future and saving lives with self-driving cars
• Neuralink: Improving the lives of disabled people with brain-implant chips
• SpaceX/Starlink: Bringing internet connectivity to remote areas worldwide
• The Boring Company: Reducing traffic and travel time
• xAI/Grok: Using AI to solve problems, answer questions, and tackle challenges
• And much more
Don’t measure Elon by his wealth. Measure him by what he has built, what he’s creating/building, and all the things that wouldn’t exist without him. That list is long.

Human beings are called to be co-workers in the work of creation, not merely passive consumers of content generated by artificial technology. Our dignity lies in our ability to reflect, choose freely, love unconditionally, and enter into authentic relationships with others. Recognizing and safeguarding what characterizes the human person and guarantees their balanced growth is essential for establishing an adequate framework to manage the consequences of artificial intelligence.
