Elon is the richest man in the world - except when Jeff Bazos passes him - they are kind of neck and neck sometimes it is one sometimes the other.

So he must have solved something - even if it is just how to lead geeks and make money.

Haters goina hate

So we're supposed to admire him?

Why does this Elon Musk get brought up so much here? I don't know who he is really and I care even less.

Elon Musk is a business executive, and he's an inventor, too.

He is seeking to become one of the first people who promotes "space tourism."

There is speculation that he has Aspie traits.

Don't know - some overpaid varmint is all I know about him. When I first heard the name I thought it was a type of after-shave.

It does sound like some sort of aftershave. :lol:

I thought he was a woman at first, as the name sounds feminine for some reason.

This is interesting:

http://oddlydevelopedtypes.com/content/ ... syndrome-0

Is it relevant - N types tend not to be problem solvers because the S types are all busy doing the “well known” day to day stuff and the Ns are better at the unexpected or atypical stuff.
If it was well known and expected it would be “on the list” and S types are all about those lists. Since it is a problem it probably isn’t on the list.


I can't get my head around the claim that ASD people (myself?) are not abstract thinkers and yet I am a great innovator, so I guess my innovation is not abstract? I need to read up on this. I do know I stink at games that use approximate sounds (which I take literally) and that I had to learn to estimate (and now I am really good at it).

How can I be an "N" when I am hypersensing which one would tend to think is a strong "S" ---- although come to think of it that one actually makes sense to me: Intuition is greater than the sum of its (sensing) parts. :wink:

One could be an innovator with very concrete ideas.

The Abstract is sometimes pretty useless in “real life.”

It's been confirmed, as far as I know / according to the last few things I have read about him.
