"Elon's not driven by money. Let me be very clear about that – I've known him well. He's driven by solving problems."
Early SpaceX investor @PeterDiamandis reacts to criticisms of Elon Musk's trillionaire status: https://www.cnbc.com/video/2026/06/15/spacex-investor-peter-diamandis-elon-musk-is-not-driven-by-money.html
Many users praised Elon Musk's focus on solving humanity's challenges over personal wealth, while some accused him of selfish enrichment and harmful behavior.
I've known @elonmusk for 26 years, and there's lots of noise about him becoming a trillionaire. If one thing defines him, it's that he's NOT driven by money, but instead by solving our world's toughest problems.
Peter - people don't know inspired because they haven't hung out with a Benjamin Franklin or a Wright bother. They are mysterious because they're not only one in a million but they have embraced the unique aspects of themselves. Living art.

@SquawkStreet @PeterDiamandis My strategy plan !! 🎌🍄 ⬇️
@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk Yes I see this. He invested time for this process and he slept in a bed, enjoyed time with his kids while I my family went trough hell, because he is involved also. I can say the same about Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and so forth ....
@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk Money chases passionate people who pursue meaning and purpose; because they don’t exploit others, they enrich them. There is no lasting prosperity without integrity.
@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk Elon is the only person on the worlds richest list without a 300M Yacht and 100m house. That should tell you all you need to know.

@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk I concur, He has nothing to do with money. The benefit from having that mental paper is viewpoint perspective. @elonmusk It allows him to think on the other side of money. Not just personally but for EVERYONE.
@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk That is why money follows him. It was never the mission.
@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk Like murdering anybody who is stupid enough to board SPCX rockets.
Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down, that’s not my dept, says Elon R. Musk.
@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk Tbh, after a certain level money doesn’t even count anymore.
Like literally, it’s impossible to count to one trillion - it would take 31k+ years. For context, the agricultural revolution was around 10-12k years ago.
