      Tesla exists to help reduce risk of catastrophic climate change, which affects all species on Earth. Even if your faith in humanity is faltering, this is worth caring about. Support makes a difference. Thank you.

      You should ask why I would want money. The reason is not what you think. Very little time for recreation. Don’t have vacation homes or yachts or anything like that.

          Ignore these people Elon! You dont need to proove anything, you have almost single handedly created a paradigm shift around the world just like you set out to do. The money is a byproduct of great ideas in a capitalist world. Its sustaining your mission keep focussed on that! :)

          Most people with that amount of wealth would probably buy an island & not work again. This is a man who not only works when he doesn't have to, but works harder than seems humanly possible. I doubt money is a motivator except that $ is needed to achieve the ultimate goal of mars

          Do you work as hard as the average Mexican dishwasher? By the way, you didn't answer the question as to why you would want money. What's the reason that's not what people think?

          People forget you invested all your money from PayPal into Tesla and space x. If money was your motivation. You could have just bought lots of expensive toys and lived the life. We believe in Tesla and what its core mission is. Keep it up.

          There are many of us running companies large and small for whom making money is a consequence of what we do well but not the reason for doing it.

          Anyone for whom making money is the sole purpose of their activity is a very limited, shallow and one dimensional individual. Humans are, or should be, more than that.
