    He’s successful in spite of himself. He makes terrible decisions constantly.

      He seems like the avatar of the concept that rich people are not allowed to fail in society, no matter how hard they try. Once you reach a certain size, there will always be an army of people around them to hold them up. You just sit at the top and everyone under you needs you to succeed otherwise they’re also fucked.

      Musk is too big to fail.
