This is usually the part of the conversation where someone mentions slave labour in an emerald mine and immigration fraud and then comes the part where you usually say something along the lines like "hasn't been proven in court!"

Musk started with a $20,000 loan from his family. You could buy a used car for $20,000, no emerald mine and slaves required.

Musk parlayed the loan into $trillions.

It would have been so cool if you didn't derail this conversation about 'Confronting America’s gerontocratic crisis' with your Elon Musk fanboy-ism.

So cool.

I am indeed an unapologetic Musk fanboy. For good reason.
