Maybe it's because he's actually doing things I but dreamed of, or because I am gullible, or just really, really want to believe, but I believe Elon Musk is being completely forthright regarding his motivations, purposes, and endeavors.
Regardless of why, he's doing them, and I'm a fan.
This is a long, candid interview, and Musk's pain and vulnerability is palpable. While I wish he wasn't so vulnerable, his circumstances and personal life strongly resonate with me. I wish I wasn't so vulnerable too! =p
It's a long, information packed read, so I'll just leave you to it.
