Ron Baron: While Others Chase Money, Elon Stays Focused on Making Another Planet Habitable

Ron Baron: While everyone tries to make as much money as they can, Elon is focused on his long-term mission.

“What amazes me about [Elon] now is, every time you ask him, how do you do that, how do you know that, how do you know what these things cost, he knows everything. He has a photographic memory. He remembers stuff.

He's focused on cost, trying to drive cost out of everything.

Everyone else tries to make as much money as they can. He's focused on his long-term mission, which is to make another planet habitable.

He's a very funny, engaging, smart, incredibly hardworking person.”
