AAPL!!! Good Lord.

[quote=GGD]Maybe Elon needs to get kicked out of his own company like Jobs did, and use that time to learn from his mistakes and come back more determined and mature for a second chance. Do we think AAPL would be where it is today if Jobs hadn't left in 1985 and spent time at Next and Pixar?

He was. He was ousted from x.com/PayPal.
Like Jobs being kicked out of Apple, this was the best thing that ever happened to Musk.
100%

Business Insider reported that in October 2000, Musk wanted to switch the PayPal servers from a Unix platform to a Microsoft Windows platform, but the other cofounders didn’t like the idea.

While he was on his way to Australia for a vacation, Musk was fired by PayPal’s board.

It was during that time that he was inspired to found SpaceX and Tesla. He founded Tesla in 2003 because it would solve the problem of sustainable energy and he founded SpaceX in 2002 because it would help “make life multi-planetary,” he told the Caltech graduates.

In 2005, he told Fast Company that at SpaceX, his private aerospace company, failure is expected. “There’s a silly notion that failure’s not an option at NASA,” he told the magazine. “Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.”

“I gave both SpaceX and Tesla a probability of less than 10 percent likely to succeed,” he said.
