Elon was a man of many faces. His face was one that most people would not expect to see when talking about the world's wealthiest man, but when he needed to speak or act like himself, it showed through with his features. It was always in his eyes as well, the twinkling and knowing glint they held when speaking. This was no secret to anyone, including himself, who knew him well.
The man was a brilliant businessman; everyone could agree on that, and had worked hard for what he had achieved. As such, he had earned the respect of the other wealthy businessmen in the city, both men and women alike. They all respected his intelligence and business experience. There were times where he found himself being underestimated by others because of this, but it did not deter his confidence from growing.
His business was doing very well, despite the fact he was a man of few words at times and kept to himself most of the time. He was also a person to be admired and trusted. It was not surprising at all when someone as talented and charismatic as he was is said to be the owner of Tesla Motors. People who didn't know him knew that it was simply due to his genius. He was not just good at mathematics or computing but he had great vision and talent. No one could deny that.
However, there were those who saw him differently. They had heard rumors that his wife had left him.
Elon never let those rumors bother him. He believed that it was something that he deserved, after all he wasn't perfect. It wasn't as though his wife was flawless either. Elon was a man full of flaws, but he still managed to create incredible technology. He was a real life genius and definitely proud of how far he had come since the beginning of his career.
There weren't many who knew him personally however. Most of them knew him only by reputation; Elon had been known to spend hours sitting in a coffee shop with his laptop open, studying or working. It was obvious that he loved technology and was passionate about whatever it was that he chose to build.
This had led to countless debates between Elon and his co workers regarding whether or not his work ethic and desire for excellence outweighed his love of spending money. Some thought this might have been true, while others claimed that Elon was simply too busy with his work and didn't really have time for anything else. Either way, the results of these arguments were the same and everyone agreed. Elon didn't do anything except work. If you were lucky enough to get into his company, he would help you if you asked politely, but if you didn't, you were on your own. That was the way the rest of the world saw him.
Elon Musk, the CEO and president of SpaceX, was known for having big dreams. Whether or not these goals would take place or whether or not Elon could achieve them was another question. In short, he was a man of science and he had an obsession with space. He wanted to go out there and find out everything there was to earn about space. His obsession with space was not necessarily limited to space exploration, but rather the whole concept of space travel itself.
SpaceX was an entirely different story though.
It is one of the largest companies around. SpaceX, was one of Elon's favorite things to talk about with people. While others were more focused on profits and market share, Elon was much more interested in exploring the possibilities and possibilities of space travel. In the years following the launch of Elon Musk's first rocket, Elon's name became synonymous with space exploration.
If you asked Elon if he was excited about his research, he wouldn’t hesitate to say yes. He talked about it nonstop during meetings and discussions with investors. His passion for space exploration was so much bigger than any corporation ever could hope to understand. He was truly passionate about the idea of space travel, even if it involved a bit of risk and uncertainty. Space travel represented a whole new world for him and while he hadn' t found a solution to his dilemma of whether or not space travel would benefit society and civilization at large, he still wanted to explore it.
