Ahhhh Elon Musk... I'm not afraid to say it, I F&#ing love that man!
How amazing is it to be alive in a time when this one man's goals include...
Reducing global warming through sustainable energy production and consumption, and reducing the risk of human extinction by making life multiplanetary by establishing a human colony on Mars.
And then actually be able to accomplish those goals by making (with a lot of help), not one, not two, but three multi billion dollar businesses by the age of 46! ok, ok he hasn't actually accomplished the Mars colony yet but I am confident he most certainly will within the next 20 years.
