    Can someone provide sources for the information? I’m not doubting it, just that relying solely on information from a meme without references is generally a bad idea

      For PayPal he was actually fired, but still had a lot of shares. Musk was fired when the company he was CEO of (x.com), merged with Confinity. PayPal was a service of Confinity. Musk kept pushing his X concept, whilst the rest of the company wanted to go PayPal. Musk got pushed out over this and some other conflicts. Later PayPal made it big and the shares made Musk a bunch of money.

      So for PayPal Musk had zero to do with it’s success.

        No offense, but since you replied to the other comment: I don’t think you know what a source is.

        EDIT: lol, They asked for sources! You know, like links to proof…? It’s the very first sentence!

      Well with Tesla, that was a lawsuit. He was being sued and due to the outcome, board members became co-founders. Legally Musk is considered a co-founder of Tesla.

          His base would applaud that he won that right
