Elon Musk is a masterclass in resilience. Even when he was hit down to rock bottom, he refused to give up
In late 2008, he was on the absolute verge of total bankruptcy:
โข SpaceX had suffered three failed launches in a row, with only enough capital left for one final roll of the dice.
โข Tesla was bleeding cash and days away from shutting down completely.
โข He was personally down to his last dollarsโฆ.borrowing money from friends just to pay rent and keep the payroll from bouncing
Most people would have broken under that level of pressure. Most people would have taken the loss and walked away
But he didnโt
He went completely all in, worked insane 120-hour weeks, bet his entire life's fortune on the fourth rocket launch, and turned a near-death experience into the foundation of a $3 Trillion empire.
this is the greatest comeback story in modern history
