Nothing Musk has thought, said, or done is "novel." He's not an inventor. He doesn't have new, interesting ideas. He doesn't create. He's a glorified lottery winner (and corporate welfare queen) that bought other people's companies and took credit for their work.

It's the best description I've heard.
He got paid in shares just to leave the company that LATER became PayPal. He became a millionaire when PayPal was a success.
He put the money into Tesla. ALREADY founded by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning.
