Agree with most of what you say but Musk's business is the battery business, autos are side business.
Elon Musk is Going to Build a Vast Network of Deep Underground Bases and Tunnels.

I agree about the electric cars. As for going to space, his company certainly has made some great strides forward, but the projections about a manned mission to Mars in 2020 seems a little unrealistic for the moment. There are an awful lot of problems they'd need to solve before that.
Therein lies one more problem for Musk.
Cobalt.... or the lack there of. Its no big secret but its going to get worse as more and more EV's are manufactured.

Tesla is a religion and Elon Musk is it's prophet. Tesla has devout following, I doubt any of these will dip into Tesla's market share in a substantial way.
Nope, his business is issuing stock.

As much as I love Amazon as a customer, they NEVER sold books with a profit. They had to keep evolving, hell, even making TV series, to finally find their niche. Right now their biggest money maker is cloud services, <<< nothing to do with selling books online.
So who knows, maybe Tesla will end up to be the biggest rocket company and they will make cars for PR purposes only.
What is 20 billion dollars liability between friends anyway?

I am not an Elon Musk disciple. I know a few people who own Teslas and know how they feel. Tesla is in battery business, cars are for attention and selling batteries.
