Lesson I learned is that Elon’s success has a ton to do with tenacity resilience and persistence and less about intelligence or doing things perfectly the very first time. Lot of crazy ups and downs , but most important things amongst others is his framework for thinking and first principles rationale and for the questions formed and unique ways of solving different problems Think first principles, think differently, think rationally, creatively, and find other talented people who you can work with who do the same. And create something needed and lasting and epic together with them. !

I thank Elon Musk everyday for having the courage to accomplish his dreams against all odds. I know I had a discussion with him in the early 2000s about solar panels and electric cars. I had a big hate on for the petroleum industry polluting our world and charging us up the ass for their products. Elon could not believe the simplicity of my plan and thought it was an excellent idea. One we should do and will do one day. Today it is done because he had the guts to do it. I also got asked by someone to join SpaceX not because I have crazy qualifications but because I have a passion to explore space. This was in the earlier days of SpaceX and like Elon I didn't expect it to succeed. Elon Musk has no fear of failure, he has the perseverance to see a normal man's dreams turn into reality. So this time I would like to say I am fully on board with what Elon Musk has on the go. Everything he does he does with so much commitment to better the life of everyone and all humanity. I am an entrepreneur at heart but he is someone I would work for. This is the time and we are the people that will change the world!

Humbled to watch Elon’s candid nature in this interview. It feels like I’m hanging out having a good time with friends. Interesting to watch him working to decompress his existential challenges and love how curious and how focused he is to get to the bottom of everything. What I see is a man that knows we are walking blind and driven by the possibility/probability of massive consequences if we don’t uncover truth. Outstanding job making this quality production 3rd Row Tesla, and Elon! Cheers to the future of consciousness and the furthering of our reach.

And also something about expanding consciousness aha. That’s why he donated $15M to the Xprize for literacy competition.

[@m3rbs]

maximizing the happiness of the higher class is the only thing Tesla is capable of. Hopefully one day Elon's ventures will benefit lower class people.

[@Nick_Tag]

@@m3rbs Well in The Republic Socrates does say that until all Kings are philosophers or Philosophers are Kings, the best form of governance is an Aristocracy (Democracy is 4th) ... how do you think we've been developing humanity. Also you're not bound to the class you're born into, and data shows 20% of the Aristocrats will completely squander their privileged position. Lol

[@m3rbs]

@@Nick_Tag I disagree with Socrates then. I have read in depth about his opposition to democracy and I heavily consider his critique. The gist of it being that democracy becomes vulnerable due to the uneducated. In addition, all kings becoming philosophers or vice versa, imo, will never happen. Does that seem likely to you? It is more unlikely than advancing education so citizens can participate in democracy effectively. A benevolent elite will never form in the guise of capitalism. I'm not saying there aren't compassionate billionaires (hence, why I am watching this video), but I don't think that aristocratic capitalism is better in the long run. Thanks for your response.

[@Nick_Tag]

@@m3rbs Fair enough, I just thought it was interesting when I read it. Direct democracy all the way -- but (for me) only fully informed / logically valid votes should be cast as it is time consuming. If any piece of data had an 'Office of National Statistics' emblem on it would be a lot faster to get to the truth. I'd consider Joe Rogan, Eric W, Lex F, et al the philosophers of our day and they are teeing up the conversation to Millions so that's a damn good start.

The video title should be: six "interviewers" marvel at Elon's greatness for hours

[@mikheievavictoria6650]

haha, true! i went into a comment section to see people's reaction coz i was pretty disappointed with the way they "interviewed" him. They are supposed to be concidered as people who know more than average Joe about tesla and stuff, therefore i expected them to ask some non-trivial questions when instead they made him repeating the same set of stories about zip2, paypal and 2008 period that he tells in almost every interview. Don't understand why people enjoied it. it's bassically empty in terms of new information

[@IronMan-wz8dx]

I disagree, its a story about Elon Musk hence the title. It does goes off track to some other historical events during his early years. It isnt very well structured and results in something of a open conversation.

@@mikheievavictoria6650like Jim said, this was an open conversation focused on Elon's story as he wanted to tell it. We framed the opening of the discussion by asking about the tweet that led to the meeting - Viv's first question. Then we let Elon take the conversation where he wanted to, leading into the next logical connected topic that made sense to him. We had a long list of questions as backup as you'll see we all had notes, but that wasn't what the purpose of the discussion was about this time. Future discussions with Elon will be different and depend on situation at those times.
