And a spoilt brat who threw a tantrum and flung accusations about people who worked in the rescue of children from the thai cave in multiple posts, and has done so in other cases when he has not got his own way. Business success is not a licence to do and behave as he wants.

Business success is not a licence to do and behave as he wants. Sure, he screwed that one up badly. But nobody who is very successful wins every skirmish, as long as they are small losses they get forgotten before too long. The history of successful people is about selective recall, no successful person ever won every fight and none of them were 100% good guys, they ALL had some amount of murkiness in their past, many had more murk than clarity.

I wonder if back in 1900 there was the equivalent of a social network forum where people asked the question, what about these motor car things then, does anyone really think they'll catch on or last? "At first people did not think of them as something useful; they were more like toys. Early cars were also expensive and unreliable. They always seemed to be breaking down, and tires went flat as often as once or twice a day on an all-day trip!"....the equivalent of an EV perhaps that only goes a comparatively short distance before needing to be recharged. And did the late adopters kick themselves for not getting into the game sooner, you know, like a potential Tesla investor who sits on the sidelines because that bubble is bound to pop. They will never replace good old horses cried some.

Yank? From the wiki page "Musk was born to a Canadian mother and South African father and raised in Pretoria, South Africa. He briefly attended the University of Pretoria before moving to Canada aged 17 to attend Queen's University. He transferred to the University of Pennsylvania two years later, where he received bachelor's degrees in economics and physics. He moved to California in 1995 to attend Stanford University but decided instead to pursue a business career, co-founding the web software company Zip2 with his brother Kimbal. The startup was acquired by Compaq for $307 million in 1999. Musk co-founded online bank X.com that same year, which merged with Confinity in 2000 to form the company PayPal and was bought by eBay in 2002 for $1.5 billion." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk

I wonder how many are still using windows millenium, how many reverted back to what they were using, how many people has bill gates and his worthless windows operating systems p**sed off. Windows 10 what a pos. Fire up my old computer can do an f disc and complete reinstall in less than an hour.
