If his dream is really to have the world switch from ICE to EV cars, then he should consider this. That would be an engineering and laudable feat, and he would be in the annals of history. He can then focus on SpaceX and go to Mars. But if his dream is to become ultra-wealthy and be like Stark in Ironman, then I guess he can keep to himself Tesla.
This is a guy with 5 Beverly Hills mansions and a private jet. All financed via his Tesla stock.
It seems as though any sacrifices related to "the mission" are expected to come from Tesla and SpaceX employees who have to suffer through periodic rounds of layoffs.
