Elon Musk is a Freeloader in Silicon Valley Despite $17M House in LA

Elon Musk is Sort of Homeless

 

"He's kind of homeless, which I think is sort of funny," Google CEO Larry Page told Ashlee Vance. Musk owns a $17 million home in Los Angeles with gorgeous ocean views but he doesn't have any property in Silicon Valley, where his company Tesla Motors is based. When Musk visits every week, he sometimes pings Page, who owns a six bedroom home in palo alto,  as well as a second eco-friendly mansion on the same property.

 

"He'll e-mail and say, 'I don't know where to stay tonight. Can I come over?'" Page says. "I haven't given him a key or anything yet."

somewhere between a smart investor and a splurger, makes this modern Iron Man sound like he just might be in over his head. However, as any one with a net worth of over a million dollars will tell you, you only sleep in one bed, in one house, at a time, why buy more than what you can use at one time.

Though to be fair he has a home, invalidating the entire statement. His home just isn't in Silicon Valley.

I couldn't have made it more of a click bait if i tried. Change it to "Elon musk is sort of a bum" if what you're saying is true.

Or "Elon Musk has no official place of residence in Silicon Valley".

Person x owns a house but works away from home.

Person x stays at a hotel or a friends place overnight to not have to go through the trouble of returning to his home for some time.

Person x has millions of dollars and can afford any hotel but prefers to hang out at his friend's mansion.

Is person X homeless? No he is not.

Haha, I wonder if Musk and Page have sleep overs. Buy a pizza, play videogames and "let's buy a company". :P

I am sure there are plenty kickbacks (both financial and freebies) from being nice and allowing Elon musk to use a spare room during the week.

Grammar and spelling is not indicative of intelligence/knowledge.  Not having the same opinion does not always mean lack of understanding.
