  • Evan,

    I like your topic choice as Elon is everywhere right now. Be sure to organize your summary a bit better as it all over the place chronologically. When telling about the history of someone, start with the beginning and work your way through his/her life hitting the high points.

    Yu didn't replty to any student comments which is worth 30 points. -30 three days late.

  • I think Elon Musk does have a lot of money. I am honestly not sure if his wealth is hard-earned money as he has been accused with other billionares of evading his taxes. HE did definetely recieve a head start from his parents to kick off his company and make it be what it is today.

  • Elon Musk is beyond sucsesfull and is still reaching his goals. He desreves every penny earned from his work. He may have had a rich family, but he still had to keep working hard to keep the money rate up. I personally think he is one of the most if no the smartest man with money.

  • Elon Musk definitely has a lot of money. While he has earned this money he was working hard day and night. In my opinion, he is 100% deserving of the money he has. While being born into a rich family as he did does not always mean the money is going to be there. He had to work to turn that money into more and more money. 

  • I do not think that Elon Musk has "too much" money. I think that being born into an already wealthy family was a jumpstart and headstart for his own business. I think Elon Musk is very worthy of his money and deserves what he gets.

  • Being born into a wealthier family definetly helped him start all of his businesses from which he became wealthy from. Although he started wealthy doesn't always mean people become as rich as he is today. I do think he deserves the money he has since he worked for every for it.

  • Although he was born into a wealthy family, he grew his wealth to such a level that no matter where he started from he would have still be successful. I do not think that he makes to much money because of the sacrifice and work he had to put in to earn said money. I 100% believe that he deserves his wealth. 

  • Being born in a wealthy family definetly gave him a good base. However, if he has worked hard for his money, and his vehicles aren't junk I think he deserves it. He is also very smart which has also helped him make all of the money he has.

  • Even though he was born into a wealthy family, Musk was able to also put in the work needed to make his as successful as he is now. Therfore, he does deserve his money and all that he has earned. I'm not sure if I would consider it too much money, but it is nice that he gives some of it away to different charities. 

  • I do not think that Elon Musk makes too much money. I think that everything he has made has been well deserved. Even though he was born into a rich family that would've helped him at the start, he worked really hard to earn all of his money.
