That year was his darkest moment where he made a decision that decided the fate of his two companies and it was a huge risk but you wouldn’t even know looking at this interview. He seems so positive and calm and focused.
@@yaBoyDreamer you’re right, thanks for pointing that out.‘I fixed my original comment to be more easily understood. But yeah Spacex and Tesla were going through it and he risked everything he had to save them.
@@MajorasLullaby the financial crisis hit him hard. If you look, you can find where he talks about having just enough money (roughly $20M) to save either Tesla OR Spacex and he mentions it was like having to decide which of his two children should survive but he decided to take a risk and split the money evenly between the two companies knowing they could both fail without enough funding but he pulled them back from the brink of failure thankfully. It was his own personal money too. He gave everything he had for these companies.
The biggest achievement in human history and Probably in the history of the universe. Just imagine if you would have told an ancestor of ours a million years ago, that one day some crazy motherfucking genius (Or should I say "A genius son of a Daughterfucker") will send a Tesla Roadster in an orbit around the sun, he would have gone totally nuts in total disbelieve i think. But nevertheless, Elon did it and now we are only one step away from living on the mars and travel through space, safe and with low costs, as we now do on earth with the Hyperloop - as Elon promised!!! for him all this stuff is just too easy. I also have preordered my humanoid Sexrobot which he has promised last year. (But to be honest I've heard of a timeline where he doesn't delivers as promised, and most of the stuff is simple vaporware. But luckily not on my timeline, therfore my lonely Incel-Days are counted, thanks to the Tesla S-Robot 3000!)
@@possiblymaybe. no, Tesla could never produce several million cars. “Is the constraint a quantity of resources?” Tesla sells thousands of cars a year while all the other major car companies sell millions a year.

The hard part is to build hundreds of thousands of them profitably, let alone distribute them and service them profitably. Audi has a whole series of electric cars coming out soon. The truth is that he induced the media to make people believe that his products are the forefront of innovation. If you get that Tesla, you will be making a change in the world, you feel.

That amount of debt is nothing, look at how much debt the other carmakers have...

I was working in Richmond Hill this week. On my way out I decided I take a drive to Tesla Canada to see if I could meet someone for a tour of the Canadian facilities. I come up with innovative business ideas on a daily basis so I feel like I can help with the transition to sustainable transportation and energy.

I would like to continue to contribute what I can do to help this world be a better place and allow humanity to spread its wings.

Hi, he is not the founder of the company. The vision is that of the founders Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, Elon liked what they were doing and decided to get involved. Full credit for his contribution, but he did not start the company and it was not his vision. He says it himself at (0:45). Every one stop inventing things he did not do, he does not need it he has done so much already
He spoke everything to existence specially when he said a smaller company would lead the way! Now all companies have some version of an electric car and its very expensive
02:25 *laughs* I'll give you one guess 03:30 So where's their electric car? Elon is way ahead of the game. How many companies have suddenly decided to produce electric cars now?
Elon had such simplicity and such clarity of his goal back in those days. Doesn't seem like the same guy anymore. Or maybe it's just that there's so much content of him right now that there's a lot of places where he's just joking around doing stupid stuff.
I’m 40 and kinda feel like a failure when I watch these older videos. Still owe money 150k on my house and that’s my main objective in life to pay that stupid thing off. Meanwhile he is just out changing the world.
I was born in 08 when the car was first made, i am going to get the original roadster as my first car, im gonna invest in stock market like $60k to buy this car used
After 14 years… incredible to watch. He said everything there, what is only reiterated ever since all the time on and on
Imagine you’re a Dutch journalist looking back on your career, and you had a 1:1 afternoon with Elon Musk👌

Back then everyone was laughing at Tesla and its ambitions but everything he predicted became reality. A true business leader.
The sheer intelligence, confidence and steely determination. He's an incredible man
Too bad he didn't found Tesla motors.

Totoya is still exploring Hydrogen in cars, in 2022.
Reporter: "So what's the best way to power a car?"
Elon: GTFOH
Truly inspiring seeing it years latter
What a legend.
I dreamt about him today. It was cool "meeting" him :D
“I’m Elon musk” he’ll never say those words
ELON ROCKS 🔥🔥🔥
He was and is soo passionate!
The answer @1.46 was pretty confident and now we can see it.
This is like the inverse of Peter Schiff talking about gold in 2012.
The "there isn't anything to make noise" goes hard.
When he introduces himself "I'm Elon Musk" 2022 be like :🙄🙄
Gotta love Elon
This interview aged so incredibly well. Incredible what this man has achieved.
This was the same roadster he sent to space.
MI MOTIVACIÓN GENIO 🎉 BEAUTIFUL.
He has had major dental work...and he is spot on about Hydrogen. So Germany should listen to 15 yr old advice and stop the investment in H2.
His vision is so accurate from a very early period of electric vehicle. What a genius.
A genius!
you can see the ambition in his eyes
Mr. Musk you should show me more amazing stuff. Thank you
Small very focused, dedicated team willing to take the risks and make something happen. Boom! So succinct.
I love the shrug he gives as he's backing up in total silence
Only legends have this in recommendations
A man with a vision can change the world forever. And he is doing it!
These old videos, where do you get them?
Gosh I need like this innocent elon in this video in my real life life partner 😍 he is so cute here just wanted to hug him here. 💟

Do you see Tesla as a direct competitor to the large car manufacturers? ...I like his definite confident YES answer.
That Tesla of his is now flying somewhere in the solar system.
looks like this man can change the world

There he was still a nice guy. Today he is horrible, a men aimed for power.
