I like Elon, but I think he's so out of touch (not surprising since he's a billionaire). But not everyone wants to own or drive a car. Many Americans don't like driving and want to live in dense urban centers with great metro/subway accessibility. A walking lifestyle is so different from a driving lifestyle that most Americans are not only used to, but only aware of, sadly. You cannot build enough vehicle capacity to reduce traffic because it induces MORE DEMAND. Elon should know this. SMH.

@C. V. We (or maybe just me) are not in base reality anyway, so may as well recognize him. How do I know? In base reality a single human would not be able to create either a private space agency, or an electric auto manufacturing company in this day and age.

"People don't change their mind they just die". This is such a bold statement to make in public but so true. It takes a lot of self-reflecting and stepping down to admit that you were wrong about something and to learn from it. A lot of people reach a point where they get too full of themself and don't think about the possibility of growing more. They stagnate. As he describes with the job titles, they usually don't mean anything but they are used to justify opinions. He is so genuine and you can see that he means what he is preaching and this is getting rare nowadays. So I am happy he is still with us and hopefully for a long time to come!

I realize this doesn't describe the majority of people. But with the drive to do so, one could gain further sight into topics that shorter living humans cannot. There is also an issue of lost wisdom and the ability to really compare with what has come before as generations die off. Sure there are books, movies, etc to give some glimpses, but one can never really have the eye of the beholder from the previous generation unless they lived it. Taking those experiences and being able to grow over time I think is where one can really excel.

@@cradlemonsterp9309 "New theories don't make people see the light." As someone who has definitely changed opinions and mindset over time, I don't think I can agree with that. At least not as a 100% rule. Again, I get the thought that okay, so 2% of you or whatever might grow as you learn, but 98% don't and therefore it's a bad idea mindset about this. "verifiable through experience" - and I have verified through experience that a person can indeed grow and change. Doesn't obviously make it the rule, but I am self aware enough to not be full of myself as mentioned above and to know that no matter how little there might appear to be left to learn, one should never assume they know everything. It's a horrible mindset and I think the realization of that solves a lot.
I truly believe the engineering staff should be close as possible or in the factory as much as possible to see how either bad or good their decisions affect the assembly line and product. That way they can see firsthand how best to fix the mistake or improve the process. I have been on both sides in a factory as a technician, operator for machines and engineer.
Im an HVAC technician. My company was hired to work on putting AC in the rooms where fittings for SpaceX boosters are made. I wasn't allowed to take pics, but it was easily the most amazing, interesting, and awesome thing I've got to be apart of. I know I didn't design or build the boosters, but dammit I helped keep those people comfortable 😅
Every little bit helps. You think they’d take volunteers to clean toilets at SpaceX? I’m sure they wouldn’t say no to everyone and I might have some spare time this weekend

Yes, I could listen to him for hours. It’s amazing what this one man has done to help humanity when he could have just packed it in after getting his PayPal millions. I drive a Tesla EV powered by Tesla solar panels and Powerwall batteries in my house - I’m literally driving on sunshine. And I never get an electric bill and have NO power outages. My Tesla car is way quicker and more fun to drive than anything else I’ve ever driven. I can drive from Michigan to Florida in one day using Tesla’s Supercharger Network, and I don’t have to pay a dime to use it. I invested modestly in Tesla stock in early 2013, and it made me a multimillionaire able to retire early (60). He and his companies are now employing over 100,000 people generating billions in wages as well as billions in tax revenue for federal, state, and local gov’ts. America is super lucky to have this immigrant become an American.
@Redwood Myers Rockets that land themselves on robot drone ships in the ocean and cars that enjoy the highest owner satisfaction rating in the entire industry? At some point Musk haters start to sound like flat earthers.
Thank you for hosting this I’m sure you put a lot of effort and thought in this. Here’s a suggestion for next time. Let the audience ask the majority of the questions. I think they have sophisticated ones based on their field of study in their industry. Many of the questions you asked just didn’t do it for me at all. Love to see you host the next one too🙂🙂🙂
The CEO’s in the audience didn’t have questions, except for one man. Most CEO’s have no clue, because it’s the workers who would know what questions to ask. Except for CEO’s who are hands on…like Elon.
@ross reed the sad and funny thing is that Elon shames them so much in every way. He works for minimum wage, put his own money in to start the businesses and doesn't cash out even 20 years in, works crazy hours and sees himself as the guy who fixes problems that other people can't handle. He is also a top grade engineer at the very least
@@DumbledoreMcCracken That a lie. Can you elaborate what subsidies did Tesla receive that other auto makers did not? I bet you can't because you're just mechanically repeating lies without checking facts. Also, fossil fuel industries get thousands of times more subsidies for poisoning lungs of children. But you would be fine with that.
@@blackshadow7192 That's the usual approach. However, I think he actually keeps some of the options he redeems to pay taxes and live off that. I don't know that he's borrowing off his company shares.
I am honored this man is living during my lifetime. Just being able to watch all he is doing is amazing. He will surely fill many history books. Truly a gifted man.
Like most journalists, the interviewer's paradigm is that government is indispensable. The premise of her questions is clear evidence of that. LOVE IT that Elon didn't take the bait.
@@alexalleman4756 He made the idiotic comparison between East Germany and West Germany as a way to show the errors of Government involvement while a few minutes later he said China is going to have the biggest GDP in the world. China has more government Involvement than the USA. He also compares the Government to corporations. He has a childlike understanding of the role of government. OF course, the Government can be better, but it's still important. Also, I wouldn't speak for Erik I have a feeling he's a "Government is always Bad guy".
Which will never happen because government will always work to be the most dominant presence in every industry, which is why they are trying to pass this dumb bill for infrastructure or Electric Car reform
@@OP_-pk9hm Setting rules on emissions legislation is being a referee, but picking favourites in private industry is being a player in the field. Calling GM the leader in EVs is just pure stupidity.
Presently our Government is like really extra bad referees who try to control the entire game. Let the players play. If the Government is to be like referees than the people should be the instant replay with hard core veto powers.
Elon is absolutely amazing! We need more people like him in this world. His work ethic is incredible! I absolutely LOVE his honesty. I believe he speaks for the majority of people in this world. He is a man of principles and someone to look up to and strive to be like.
I love how Elon is so frank about the truth, like ending subsidies and the crazy deficits created by out of control government spending. I love how his mind works, always looking to provide solutions to world problems. Somehow he gets things done, that others fail at. He is a real treasure for humanity.
There's 3 reasons we should all respect Elon: 1- He's a solutionist. His "genius" isn't giving articulate speeches in podcasts or conferences. He actually solves real world problems directly by creating the solutions for them. That is 1,000 times harder than being a "public intellectual" and giving a good speech. 2- He's not "lazy rich". He spends 90% of his time at his actual factories, working 80 hours a week, and involves himself deeply with entry level employees to see what reality is for each company to make great decision after great decision. Most of us making 50K a year enjoy more time off than he gives himself. Respect that. 3- He's fearless. He doesn't give safe corporate answers and he doesn't care if his opinion on things makes himself enemies. A lot of CEO's try to make every answer as unoffensive as possible to maximize options for partnership at all times. Instead, Elon calls out nonsense aggressively and lets his partnership and collaboration chips fall where they may. The haters that picture Elon in some big office with his feet kicked back smoking a cigar while "the little people" make him rich, clearly have never researched his daily reality. You don't get to where he's at by seeking leisure and passing work off to others. You get to where he's at by relentlessly trying to improve the world for the better.
Outstanding & eloquent as always...All well said. Although I thought the host was a bit rude & sarcastic. Mr. Musk stays classy, kind & humble, regardless of the rudeness. This is what makes him an outstanding citizen!
He is above brilliant and we should read between the lines here. I admire him and feel we are all lucky to have him. I personally have grown to like and trust what he says.We will see, I guess.
Yeah because he know longer qualifies for subsidies...all 3 of he's companies have grown substantially because of subsidies... Billions of dollars worth! Don't be so delusional!
@ubuu7 Everyone is off at some point, like your critique about the government roll in his view. When you said "Especially when it has the power to print money". The very reason his was pointing as the wrong direction we are heading..
I love how Elon listens to the question and then pauses to think before he responds. He does not just spout off prearranged talking points like most other CEO’s and all career politicians. It is fascinating to witness a great mind un action.
What's not to praise elon? In 40 years China managed to do what no other country on earth could, lifting billions out of poverty. At the same time, the USG managed to do shove millions of Americans into poverty ... figure that elon ... east Germany vs west Germany more???
36:06 "We are headed to an interesting and different world and I hope that we can remember that we are all human beings and let's just try to have as positive a relationship as possible and work towards mutual prosperity for humanity as a whole." -Elon Musk
He is a humanist in it's truest sense. He is working towards what will be best for humans (electric vehicles, ability to travel to another planet, ability to connect with AI using our minds), but this doesn't mean that he is a "cool chill guy" that you would "hang out" with. This is what irritates people about him. But those people will be lost in time, and his name will be remembered for a very long time.
There was something ominous about that last statement. Almost like a "please don't end the world" type statement. And frankly it's a reasonable statement to make...
His side project is about making people who have been paralyzed walk again, yet the article talks about how they are profit-focused and disregard safety.
@@Wirmish Even he said he's being cautiously optimistic. We still don't have self-driving vehicles. Please, when will you all learn? Wait for actual evidence and stop falling for his pipe dream lies lol. I can't believe the failure of the "hyperloop" hasn't jarred people out of their worshipping, yet.
Elon is literally the best interview on the planet. Always a unique insight. Always a compelling way of thinking about a topic.. We are lucky to be alive to witness all that he is at the forefront of. Great job by the interviewer btw
That's a bit over the top IMHO. Lol he's a guy. Our scientists and engineer have thoughts and ideas too but they write books and we stopped reading lol
Take care of Tesla and SpaceX, those two giant money pits of bullshite. Las Vegas thought they were getting an underground bullet train, they got a Tesla in a tunnel with a driver.
"Tesla has made roughly two thirds of all the electric vehicles in the United States. I'm not sure most people are aware of that." What a gem it would have been if he had then added: "certainly President Biden and Mary Barra aren't aware of it". But he's far more diplomatic than I.
All I could find was the short clips of this. For a while I almost thought it must be a better, more condensed version. Nope, the full interview was crazy.
Thrilling to listen to Elon, every time. Thanks to WSJ for making this event available! Just one humble note... have your hosts ask better, deeper questions... not the light fluff stuff. Elon was clearly a touch exasperated and wanted to go deeper. Let him!
@@donkykon2094 I find Joanna Stern aggressive. WSJ shouldn't let someone like her, who can't handle a genius like Elon, to do the interview. She's AWFUL!!!
What a LOT of people have missed, Elon is perhaps the best manufacturing MANAGER out there! His management accomplishments (remember he has over 100,000 employees) getting max output in a fun and productive way, shows his super skills in marrying both human and physical resources to come out with the incredible growth. The fact he did so in new technology speaks volumes about his ability to define not only tasks but supervise and actualize them. . . that's the crux of "great management" !
The man has a depth of understanding that few of us will ever have. One of the greatest minds in human history IMO, and it’s a shame our president doesn’t tap that brain of his.
Well generally politicians will either ignore or attack their political opponents. Musk was always a tRump supporter so why would Biden care about him anyway
Elon has received billions in subsidies but wants to kill them off? Elon doesn't understand how successful societies are run. America should emulate a European country like Germany if you guys want to be successful.
Elon Musk is not a Trump supporter. He has specifically said he is not a Trump supporter. He is a moderate while being generally liberal on social issues and conservative on fiscal issues.
I love that he obliquely mentions accrual accounting and how the US doesn't do this at all. Right or left. It's staggering they've stayed afloat this long.
What’s more disastrous that economics professors taught this can continue indefinitely. If I mention this on twitter, I always get “this is different. Gov finances are not personal finances, no problem, etc” answers.😾
USA can't have it both ways... Accrual Accounting means your taking in a responsible amount relative to your outgoings. The USD being the global currency means you've got to be a global money supply and run a deficit. If the US didn't run a deficit the USD would be effectively deflationary for other countries trying to make use of it elsewhere in the world. The US overspending is in effect a source of currency inflation for all the rest of us... limited inflation is good for our economies which is part of why we buy into the idea of the USD being a good currency for trade. It'll all come crashing down of course... It's a trade of present day power and commodities in exchange for long-term stability. One day the USD won't be the global currency anymore, yet the US government will still have 3-1 outgoings... then the US is buggered because it's dollar will become worthless faster than anyone can imagine and then the country will collapse under debit and overspending.
@@matthewspencer2094 that’s why the stable arrangement is currency baskets or this can be modern proof of stake blockchain, when every currency issue is voted for, and shared proportionally. Such system has no inherent first order imbalances.

The fact that people are on a time crunch with this man baffles me. He’s speaking straight knowledge and information that some population can hardly even begin to understand. People would pay 100’s of thousands of dollars to go to a seminar with Elon speaking. Whoever is running this event should be like if Elon wants to talk for two hours let him… this is probably the most recognition that this organization has ever gotten.
Lol dude, this is the Wall Street journal…. Elon is great but don’t get it twisted this organization is also a power house bro. People would also pay a lot of money just to have the opportunity to speak with them as well lol
You're so right. You can see it in his eyes the thought process running wild with every thought. It's a true privilege to listen to someone this hyper-intelligent and see what his mind thinks of socioeconomic issues from his perspective.
Elon Musk is so clear in his thoughts and is a real super hero!!!! What a brilliant mind, so clean from so much corporate and management jargon.....He is focused on doing, not on show...
If you look at his eyes when he talks you can see them go from left to right as if he is opening a page in his book of knowledge and reads it out loud. This man thinks so different than we do.
In 30 minutes he talked about government spending, electric vehicles, rockets, brain implants, life extension, international relations, robotics, and the impending labor crisis. All while having deeply informed technical insights on each topic.
@@trent_carter We did, but my expectations are so low after many very poor interviews, one who doesn't inject her own views or steer the interview is outstanding in my book. I read your criticisms and others, but I don't think she was as bad as many.
I was hit on the head with steel bars that hit me on the head and i suffered severe brain injury. Your work in that area has definitely caught my attention!!!
Who would put a time-limit on a genius of humanity? It felt insulting. Having said that, I truly enjoyed it, and thank you WSJ for bringing this to us.
Elon was talking about things that he was passionate about and wanted to talk more about but the interviewer just kept asking the same basic questions that everyone asks. "How do you juggle tesla and spaceX?" "How much time do you spend on each?" Etc. Should have let him talk about what he thinks is important.
Agreed. The interviewer was almost braindead. Her statement about possibly using psychedelics to combat aging was so cringy. She can’t be that dumb so i think she’s trying to get him to say something endorsing drugs in order to cook up controversy and hate against Elon.
@@johnmqueripel2367 The Government deserves him. US has always treated foreign geniuses very well (unlike their birthcountriws which almost killed them many times) and gave them many opportunies. Im sure he loves US and would do anything for US.
This is a very old common science wisdom going back at least to the 50ies. Just because you’ve never heard of it doesn’t mean Elon is a genius who came up with it.
SpaceX is the case of corrupted politicians in the US closing the U.S. space programs and transferring billions of the U.S. taxpayers' dollars intended for building NASA space rockets to a foreign national, Musk, who then claims his private ownership of the space rockets that his employees design and build on the money received from the U.S. government. That's corruption and worse than corruption. And don't start your verbal garbage about NASA not being able to build space rockets. That's administrative problem and it is created intentionally. Corrupted politicians are changing NASA program and cancel previous programs every few years. They do not let NASA to finish any programs and then they blame NASA for that to make brainwashed plebeians think that the national space agency is worthless. Over the last few decades, politicians have been intentionally killing national space programs and transferring taxpayers' money to privately owned corporations to space. Space has been for sale for some time now. It's not for the People anymore. It's for the super-wealthy and their corporations. “I’ll make a prediction right now. The first trillionaire will be made in space.” So said Texas senator Ted Cruz, shortly after a bill was signed to increase NASA’s budget for 2018. To untrained ears, his claim would have sounded extraordinary. It might even have stretched credulity for those familiar with the challenges of space. But on closer inspection, Cruz was not being that revolutionary. Peter Diamandis - founder of the X Prize competition to encourage tech developments - made the same prediction back in 2008 and expanded on the theme in his 2015 book Bold. As for how those trillionaires will make their riches from space, both he and Neil DeGrasse Tyson - the US astrophysicist and TV host - reckon it will be done by mining asteroids. For example, the asteroid 16 Psyche, one of the most massive objects in the main asteroid belt orbiting between Mars and Jupiter, could be made entirely of metal, according to a study published this week. The asteroid's metal is worth an estimated $10,000 quadrillion (that's 15 more zeroes), more than the entire economy of Earth. Translation: there is wealth out there in space. And that's what the super-wealthy are after - wealth, and NOT rescue of humankind.
He's such a humble guy. A pure humble genius. People call him a narcissist, but he's the total opposite. He does everything for others and nothing for himself.

Im an HVAC technician. My company was hired to work on putting AC in the rooms where fittings for SpaceX boosters are made. I wasn't allowed to take pics, but it was easily the most amazing, interesting, and awesome thing I've got to be apart of. I know I didn't design or build the boosters, but dammit I helped keep those people comfortable 😅
it is an importamt job. rockets don't build themself after all
Modern world as we know it wouldn't exist without heating and cooling.
You have contributed to the colonization of Mars, congratulations 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Every little bit helps. You think they’d take volunteers to clean toilets at SpaceX? I’m sure they wouldn’t say no to everyone and I might have some spare time this weekend
And THATS what matters. You 💯 helped humanity prosper with your part.
I love how Elon speaks his mind and doesn’t worry about people pleasing
I am tired of these billionaire dorks, cuckolds and game show hosts sapping tax Dollars from desperately needed public programs and idolizing anti-Christian wealth.

Uh… um… uh…uh… he sounds like a real genius.
Ya, i love that it is his real opinion. not a preprepared script.
@@dcase20 because he is not scripted...when Obama talked like that, people said he was "genuine" and "refreshing"...
I am watching this again and again and still not tired of it. I hope Elon lives for ever.
Such a beautiful soul and an extraordinary mind with a pure heart!!
Elon is the most inspiring individual of his generation
yes
Yes, and it's also amazing that he never talks in grandiose manner or use corporate jargons that other CEOs and entrepreneur commonly use.
Yes, I could listen to him for hours. It’s amazing what this one man has done to help humanity when he could have just packed it in after getting his PayPal millions. I drive a Tesla EV powered by Tesla solar panels and Powerwall batteries in my house - I’m literally driving on sunshine. And I never get an electric bill and have NO power outages. My Tesla car is way quicker and more fun to drive than anything else I’ve ever driven. I can drive from Michigan to Florida in one day using Tesla’s Supercharger Network, and I don’t have to pay a dime to use it. I invested modestly in Tesla stock in early 2013, and it made me a multimillionaire able to retire early (60). He and his companies are now employing over 100,000 people generating billions in wages as well as billions in tax revenue for federal, state, and local gov’ts. America is super lucky to have this immigrant become an American.

This talk was like his haircut, short, dense, and to the point. Loved it.
So funny! Like your comment a lot :) LOL
It's not even his original head hair. Hair transplants cost $7.50 per follicle. I hear that he can afford it though.
So… fake? Just messing around.
Same hair style as Kim Jong-Un
choppy
Straight to the point, no fluff, I always enjoy listening how his mind works!
Thank you for hosting this I’m sure you put a lot of effort and thought in this. Here’s a suggestion for next time. Let the audience ask the majority of the questions. I think they have sophisticated ones based on their field of study in their industry. Many of the questions you asked just didn’t do it for me at all. Love to see you host the next one too🙂🙂🙂
The CEO’s in the audience didn’t have questions, except for one man. Most CEO’s have no clue, because it’s the workers who would know what questions to ask. Except for CEO’s who are hands on…like Elon.
That nervous laugh from the crowd when they know he's right is priceless.
The laughter isn’t real. It’s mk ultra wizardry for the fluoridated masses who can’t think.
@ross reed the sad and funny thing is that Elon shames them so much in every way. He works for minimum wage, put his own money in to start the businesses and doesn't cash out even 20 years in, works crazy hours and sees himself as the guy who fixes problems that other people can't handle. He is also a top grade engineer at the very least
His semis are all over the road.
@@SpicyLoops I have not heard about MK Ultra in awhile. Very interesting subject.

Thank you Elon for being such a gentleman, as well as a genius. You are very gracious.
I liked what he said about subsidies. Cutting subsidies especially for fossil fuels would change things in very significant ways.
Government subsidies are the lifeblood of Elon's enterprizes
Same.

@@DumbledoreMcCracken That a lie. Can you elaborate what subsidies did Tesla receive that other auto makers did not? I bet you can't because you're just mechanically repeating lies without checking facts. Also, fossil fuel industries get thousands of times more subsidies for poisoning lungs of children. But you would be fine with that.
He F work 7 days a week with highly complex problems from multiple companies. He deserves every cent he owns.
He's not working for money.
@Freedom Files I dont think he even takes a salary, he's just extremely wealthy bc his companies are doing so well
@@1Arsitup1 He lives on loans backed by his companies' shares like any extremely wealthy people do.
@@blackshadow7192 That's the usual approach. However, I think he actually keeps some of the options he redeems to pay taxes and live off that. I don't know that he's borrowing off his company shares.
You people have no idea what you are talking about. Wow!!
I just some times, need to open bubbles but the rotation is around the same axis/companies.
I am honored this man is living during my lifetime. Just being able to watch all he is doing is amazing. He will surely fill many history books. Truly a gifted man.
Like most journalists, the interviewer's paradigm is that government is indispensable. The premise of her questions is clear evidence of that. LOVE IT that Elon didn't take the bait.
Wsj is one of the few non-communist news organizations left imo
Move to Somalia Erik. They have zero Government. Have Fun.
@@brainxtc2171 Elon (and I suppose Erik) is not advocating for zero Government. How is that not clear?
@@alexalleman4756 He made the idiotic comparison between East Germany and West Germany as a way to show the errors of Government involvement while a few minutes later he said China is going to have the biggest GDP in the world. China has more government Involvement than the USA. He also compares the Government to corporations. He has a childlike understanding of the role of government.
OF course, the Government can be better, but it's still important.

@@brainxtc2171 China also has 1.5 billion people and slave labor. Still a fan?
Elon "Most of the time, people don't change their mind, they just die" Musk
that's sad but true
Am just Listening and Enjoying the 36 minutes .......its always awesome to listen to Elon talking about Humanity and Beyond .....
Elon is an Emotion
He is a young hard working person with a purpose and creating products to people live better now and future and this what I admire him.
Loved the statement- "The role of Government should be that of like a referee, but not a player on the field!"
Which will never happen because government will always work to be the most dominant presence in every industry, which is why they are trying to pass this dumb bill for infrastructure or Electric Car reform
Yes and the media should stick to the commentators box rather than trying to be the cheerleaders.
@@OP_-pk9hm Setting rules on emissions legislation is being a referee, but picking favourites in private industry is being a player in the field. Calling GM the leader in EVs is just pure stupidity.
Presently our Government is like really extra bad referees who try to control the entire game. Let the players play. If the Government is to be like referees than the people should be the instant replay with hard core veto powers.
The role of government is also to make the rules. He nicely side-stepped that part.
Elon is a national treasure in every aspect.
You sound almost brainwashed Rob
True
@@kpkelly233 i challenge you to name a person alive today doing more for the world.
Is he tho? He’s really controversial.
@@johngablesmith4671 so to be, one must not be controversial or have an opinion?
Elon is absolutely amazing! We need more people like him in this world. His work ethic is incredible! I absolutely LOVE his honesty. I believe he speaks for the majority of people in this world. He is a man of principles and someone to look up to and strive to be like.
What ! Seen the court case?
I love how Elon is so frank about the truth, like ending subsidies and the crazy deficits created by out of control government spending. I love how his mind works, always looking to provide solutions to world problems. Somehow he gets things done, that others fail at. He is a real treasure for humanity.
Agree !
I disagree that the world needs more people. He’s totally wrong.
There's 3 reasons we should all respect Elon:
1- He's a solutionist. His "genius" isn't giving articulate speeches in podcasts or conferences. He actually solves real world problems directly by creating the solutions for them. That is 1,000 times harder than being a "public intellectual" and giving a good speech.
2- He's not "lazy rich". He spends 90% of his time at his actual factories, working 80 hours a week, and involves himself deeply with entry level employees to see what reality is for each company to make great decision after great decision. Most of us making 50K a year enjoy more time off than he gives himself. Respect that.
3- He's fearless. He doesn't give safe corporate answers and he doesn't care if his opinion on things makes himself enemies. A lot of CEO's try to make every answer as unoffensive as possible to maximize options for partnership at all times. Instead, Elon calls out nonsense aggressively and lets his partnership and collaboration chips fall where they may.
The haters that picture Elon in some big office with his feet kicked back smoking a cigar while "the little people" make him rich, clearly have never researched his daily reality. You don't get to where he's at by seeking leisure and passing work off to others. You get to where he's at by relentlessly trying to improve the world for the better.
He has several mega mansions around the world and he recently commissioned a 1/4 Billion USD yacht. I think that you are idolizing a bit too much!
Thunderf00t : "Is SpaceX facing bankruptcy" video content should be very eye opening. The Common Sense Skeptic channel videos also

@@Hollowsmith
Read your initial comment and rely again!
Yes!
Outstanding & eloquent as always...All well said. Although I thought the host was a bit rude & sarcastic. Mr. Musk stays classy, kind & humble, regardless of the rudeness. This is what makes him an outstanding citizen!
Yep!
I also thought the interviewer was a bit snarky.
He is so sweet and giving. We will never get a man like him ever again
He is above brilliant and we should read between the lines here. I admire him and feel we are all lucky to have him. I personally have grown to like and trust what he says.We will see, I guess.
You can tell Joanna was offended that Elon doesn't want Biden's "Build Back Better" bill at all. LOL. I love Elon.
Yeah because he know longer qualifies for subsidies...all 3 of he's companies have grown substantially because of subsidies... Billions of dollars worth! Don't be so delusional!
And BBB died today in the Senate. Rejoice!
Ikr? She was so rude to him too.
@@alexphotoman You're conflating loans and subsidies just like your sister Elizabeth Warren
@ubuu7 Everyone is off at some point, like your critique about the government roll in his view. When you said "Especially when it has the power to print money". The very reason his was pointing as the wrong direction we are heading..
He’s smart enough to speak intelligently about China and US without starting a war !
The Mod 3 is an awesome car - not just a car but an inspiration. Very very lucky to be able to have one. Thank you Elon.
Elon airing some of his frustration with the government is 🔥. A true South African at heart 🇿🇦.
"The government is simply the biggest corporation with the monopoly on violence. and where they have no recourse." - Elon
😍
Yeah funny cause he left South Africa because of the Apartheid Government. Interesting guy truly.
Poes should stick to cars ;)
im sure his emerald mine is thriving.
I love how Elon listens to the question and then pauses to think before he responds. He does not just spout off prearranged talking points like most other CEO’s and all career politicians. It is fascinating to witness a great mind un action.
💯
What's not to praise elon?
In 40 years China managed to do what no other country on earth could, lifting billions out of poverty. At the same time, the USG managed to do shove millions of Americans into poverty ... figure that elon ... east Germany vs west Germany more???

Amazingly good interview! Good job!
She tried to outsmart him with some of those questions, but he had a perfect logical answer to each question. I think she was speachless
She wouldn't be a TV host if she could outsmart Elon ;-)
She couldn’t even respond to anytime he said I think she’s just trying to get through it without looking dumb
His side project is about making people who have been paralyzed walk again, yet the article talks about how they are profit-focused and disregard safety.

After hearing on all the projects he is working on , it is good time to be an Engineer
Nothing about Starlink... and that is a BIG ONE
AND up and running.
Take care of Tesla and SpaceX, those two giant money pits of bullshite. Las Vegas thought they were getting an underground bullet train, they got a Tesla in a tunnel with a driver.
@@bangolufsen8687 I think you thought Vegas was getting that.
"Tesla has made roughly two thirds of all the electric vehicles in the United States. I'm not sure most people are aware of that." What a gem it would have been if he had then added: "certainly President Biden and Mary Barra aren't aware of it". But he's far more diplomatic than I.
All I could find was the short clips of this. For a while I almost thought it must be a better, more condensed version.
Nope, the full interview was crazy.
I like the fact that he stands by his position and doesn't budge
Thrilling to listen to Elon, every time. Thanks to WSJ for making this event available! Just one humble note... have your hosts ask better, deeper questions... not the light fluff stuff. Elon was clearly a touch exasperated and wanted to go deeper. Let him!

the most inspiring for potheads community , yes...
Probably ever! History will judge
What a LOT of people have missed, Elon is perhaps the best manufacturing MANAGER out there! His management accomplishments (remember he has over 100,000 employees) getting max output in a fun and productive way, shows his super skills in marrying both human and physical resources to come out with the incredible growth. The fact he did so in new technology speaks volumes about his ability to define not only tasks but supervise and actualize them. . . that's the crux of "great management" !
Amazing work thank you!
The man has a depth of understanding that few of us will ever have. One of the greatest minds in human history IMO, and it’s a shame our president doesn’t tap that brain of his.
The president doesn't even acknowledge his existence.
Well generally politicians will either ignore or attack their political opponents. Musk was always a tRump supporter so why would Biden care about him anyway
Elon has received billions in subsidies but wants to kill them off? Elon doesn't understand how successful societies are run. America should emulate a European country like Germany if you guys want to be successful.
Elon Musk is not a Trump supporter. He has specifically said he is not a Trump supporter. He is a moderate while being generally liberal on social issues and conservative on fiscal issues.
he is yang gang, just like musk yang really want to fix problem
Cant stop smiling after listening to this, always great to hear Elons thoughts and bluntness
Knowledge is power, understanding is wisdom. This is an inspiring educational video.
remarkable interviewer. Very impressive. Thank you very much.
I love that he obliquely mentions accrual accounting and how the US doesn't do this at all. Right or left. It's staggering they've stayed afloat this long.
What’s more disastrous that economics professors taught this can continue indefinitely. If I mention this on twitter, I always get “this is different. Gov finances are not personal finances, no problem, etc” answers.😾
USA can't have it both ways... Accrual Accounting means your taking in a responsible amount relative to your outgoings.
The USD being the global currency means you've got to be a global money supply and run a deficit.
If the US didn't run a deficit the USD would be effectively deflationary for other countries trying to make use of it elsewhere in the world. The US overspending is in effect a source of currency inflation for all the rest of us... limited inflation is good for our economies which is part of why we buy into the idea of the USD being a good currency for trade.
It'll all come crashing down of course... It's a trade of present day power and commodities in exchange for long-term stability. One day the USD won't be the global currency anymore, yet the US government will still have 3-1 outgoings... then the US is buggered because it's dollar will become worthless faster than anyone can imagine and then the country will collapse under debit and overspending.
@@matthewspencer2094 What's your "over/under" on when USD loses its standing as the global currency?
@@matthewspencer2094 that’s why the stable arrangement is currency baskets or this can be modern proof of stake blockchain, when every currency issue is voted for, and shared proportionally. Such system has no inherent first order imbalances.

Yea that was embarrassingly childish.
I think she wanted to make it a cool segment, but the execution was everything but that...

I wil say this.. I think the interviewer did a great job. Listen to all the information Elon talked about
Elon was talking about things that he was passionate about and wanted to talk more about but the interviewer just kept asking the same basic questions that everyone asks. "How do you juggle tesla and spaceX?" "How much time do you spend on each?" Etc. Should have let him talk about what he thinks is important.
Agreed. The interviewer was almost braindead. Her statement about possibly using psychedelics to combat aging was so cringy. She can’t be that dumb so i think she’s trying to get him to say something endorsing drugs in order to cook up controversy and hate against Elon.

SpaceX is the case of corrupted politicians in the US closing the U.S. space programs and transferring billions of the U.S. taxpayers' dollars intended for building NASA space rockets to a foreign national, Musk, who then claims his private ownership of the space rockets that his employees design and build on the money received from the U.S. government. That's corruption and worse than corruption. And don't start your verbal garbage about NASA not being able to build space rockets. That's administrative problem and it is created intentionally. Corrupted politicians are changing NASA program and cancel previous programs every few years. They do not let NASA to finish any programs and then they blame NASA for that to make brainwashed plebeians think that the national space agency is worthless.
Over the last few decades, politicians have been intentionally killing national space programs and transferring taxpayers' money to privately owned corporations to space. Space has been for sale for some time now. It's not for the People anymore. It's for the super-wealthy and their corporations.
“I’ll make a prediction right now. The first trillionaire will be made in space.” So said Texas senator Ted Cruz, shortly after a bill was signed to increase NASA’s budget for 2018. To untrained ears, his claim would have sounded extraordinary. It might even have stretched credulity for those familiar with the challenges of space. But on closer inspection, Cruz was not being that revolutionary. Peter Diamandis - founder of the X Prize competition to encourage tech developments - made the same prediction back in 2008 and expanded on the theme in his 2015 book Bold. As for how those trillionaires will make their riches from space, both he and Neil DeGrasse Tyson - the US astrophysicist and TV host - reckon it will be done by mining asteroids. For example, the asteroid 16 Psyche, one of the most massive objects in the main asteroid belt orbiting between Mars and Jupiter, could be made entirely of metal, according to a study published this week. The asteroid's metal is worth an estimated $10,000 quadrillion (that's 15 more zeroes), more than the entire economy of Earth.
Translation: there is wealth out there in space. And that's what the super-wealthy are after - wealth, and NOT rescue of humankind.
He's such a humble guy. A pure humble genius. People call him a narcissist, but he's the total opposite. He does everything for others and nothing for himself.
