Why is everyone obsessed with Elon Musk?
Because what would you do if you say , won the lottery and got $200 mil? Buy a mansion, get a few butlers… travel the world and get drunk in every pub ever? Then buy a yacht and an island somewhere and live out your days sipping cocktails?
Well Elon had this choice after selling paypal. But decided something else… he asked what can I do to better humankind with my fortune instead of just spending it all on me.
He then invested in Tesla and pretty much almost lost everything to restart the idea of the electric car and through that choice saved millions of tonnes of CO2 being ejected into our atmosphere. Very few people can say they had such a positive effect on the world.
为什么每个人都痴迷于埃隆·马斯克？
假如你中了彩票，赢得了2亿美元，你会怎么做？买一栋豪宅，雇几个男仆……环游世界，在每个酒吧喝得酩酊大醉？然后买一艘游艇和一座岛屿，在那里度过余生，啜饮鸡尾酒？
埃隆在出售PayPal后本可以选择这样的生活。但他选择了另一条路……他问自己，我能用我的财富做些什么来造福人类，而不是仅仅把它都花在自己身上。
然后他投资了特斯拉，几乎押上了一切，重新启动了电动汽车的概念，并通过这一选择，阻止了数百万吨二氧化碳被排放到我们的大气中。很少有人能说自己对世界产生了如此积极的影响。

His other companies like SpaceX and Solar City and ideas such as the Hyperloop makes the world exciting again and makes me look at the future and think at least someone is doing something to help stop global warming. Even if he is just one man, he is like Luke Skywalker to the people who love him so much… he brings hope to a Generation who feels that their elders have sold the planet for profit.
他的其他公司，如太空探索技术公司（SpaceX）和太阳能城市（Solar City），以及像超级高铁这样的想法，再次让世界变得令人兴奋，让我展望未来，至少有人在做些事情来帮助阻止全球变暖。即使他只是一个人，对于那些非常爱他的人来说，他就像卢克·天行者……他给了一代人希望，让他们觉得他们的长辈没有为了利润而出卖地球。

We might not feel the change that Elon has brought us now… but the gift he gave in betting his fortune, is that one day we will all look back and say that one man stood up and put his balls and his wallet on the line. One day all will say that Elon started the energy revolution and he will be remembered in the same light as legends such as Newton…
If you can’t see that, then you must look at your own role models and ask, “Is this man doing what he is doing just to enrich himself, get power, leave a legacy? Or is he truly trying to make the world better?”
我们现在可能还感觉不到埃隆给我们带来的变化……但他赌上自己的命运所带来的礼物是，有一天我们回顾往事时都会说，这个人站了出来，把自己的勇气和钱包都给押上了。总有一天，所有人都会说埃隆开启了能源革命，他将和牛顿等传奇人物一样被铭记。
如果你看不到这一点，那么你必须审视你自己的榜样，并问，“这个人所做的一切只是为了中饱私囊，获得权力，留下遗产吗？还是他真的想让世界变得更美好？”

Curious how Musk will fit in the same light as that of Newton, Einstein, Tesla, Darwin, Archimedes, Kepler, Faraday, Maxwell, da Vinci, Plato, Freud and the others.
He’s probably more in the Ford, B. Franklin, Gates, Jobs league.
很好奇马斯克将如何与牛顿、爱因斯坦、特斯拉、达尔文、阿基米德、开普勒、法拉第、麦克斯韦、达芬奇、柏拉图、弗洛伊德等人相提并论。
他可能更像福特、富兰克林、盖茨和乔布斯。

I am not comparing Elon directly to Newton but mean that he will be remenbered as a great man same as Newton… a viosionary…
People compare Musk to Jobs… this always annoys me. Jobs made a good product sure… but i do not think he changed the world and hastened us towards a better future the way Elon has and will.
我并不是直接把埃隆和牛顿相提并论，而是说他和牛顿一样是伟大的人，是一个有远见的人。
人们常把马斯克与乔布斯相提并论……这总是让我很不爽。乔布斯确实做出了优秀的产品……但我认为他并没有像埃隆那样，已经和将会继续改变世界，加速我们迈向更美好的未来。

Musk contribution are not purely his, unlike that of Newton. They are built upon the shoulders of thousands of smart engineers. Placing Musk next to Newton is way more absurd than comparing him to Ford (Vertical Integration) & Jobs (Great Product). He is the best role model in the context of entrepreneurs, that’s all. And of course his vision and work is beyond that of Jobs, Zuckerberg and the likes.
马斯克的贡献并非完全是他个人的成就，这与牛顿的情况不同。他的成就实际上是站在数千名杰出工程师的肩膀上取得的。将马斯克与牛顿相提并论，比将他与福特（以垂直整合著称）和乔布斯（以打造卓越产品闻名）相比较，显得更加荒谬。他是在企业家领域中最好的榜样，仅此而已。当然，他的愿景和工作成就已经超越了乔布斯、扎克伯格等同类人物。

Maybe not a scientist or a mathematicia. But being able to go from an online webpage, to electric cars, to space is nothing less than Mind blowing. In the modern age, visionaries and entrepreneurs are as important as scientist and mathematicians were in the past.
也许他不是科学家或数学家。但从一个在线网页到电动汽车，再到太空，这无疑是令人震惊的。在现代，有远见的人和企业家与过去的科学家和数学家一样重要。

He will not fit at all with any of those you named. Those were brilliant and truly exceptional people. Musk just forced his way into undue money then multiplied that money, mostly with government subsidy. Millions do that, and he isn't an inventor, nor a scientist, nor a true innovator. He isn't an engineer, and listening to his appearances and presentations one can easily see he isn't particularly intelligent. Above average but nowhere near genius.
他与你提到的那些杰出人物完全无法相提并论。那些人都是极其出色且真正卓越的天才。马斯克不过是凭借不正当手段获取资金，然后借助政府补贴将这些资金不断增值。像他这样做的人数不胜数，他既不是发明家，也不是科学家，更算不上真正的创新者。他并非工程师，从他的公开露面和演讲中可以轻易看出，他并非特别聪慧。他的智力水平仅属中上，距离天才还相去甚远。

Comparing elon musk to newton is rubbish!!
Infact comparing Elon Musk to anyone is absurd. Elon is trying is something that no one dared until he started and showed how it can be done.
In my view he is more of a living inspiration. The next generation would look upto him and try to do something for betterment of mankind.
把埃隆·马斯克和牛顿相提并论简直是荒谬至极！
事实上，将埃隆·马斯克与任何人比较都是极其荒唐的。埃隆正在尝试一些在他人眼中不敢尝试的事情，直到他开始并展示了如何实现它们。
在我看来，他更像是一个活生生的灵感源泉。下一代人会仰望他，并努力为人类的进步做出贡献。

I'm not sure what planet you live on, but nothing Musk has “done” (others did it, not him) hasn't been done or tried by others. Nothing he is doing or did is unique, and when you actually look at it, his businesses have not helped anyone either.
我不知道你生活在哪个星球，但关于马斯克所“做”的事（其实是别人做的，不是他），其他人都做过或尝试过。他正在做或已经做过的事并不独特，而且当你真正审视时，他的企业并没有真正帮助到任何人。

If it was about the money he would have gone to a silicon valley VC firm or done almost anything other than sink money into an automotive start-up.
Tesla / Solar City / Space X -- well covered elsewhere.
如果他只是为了赚钱，他本可以选择去硅谷的风险投资公司，或者从事几乎任何其他行业，而不是将资金投入到汽车初创企业中。
特斯拉/太阳能城市/太空探索技术公司——已在别处被广泛报道。

That’s a pretty idealistic, and frankly, ridiculous point of view. You honestly think he just altruistically decided to start Tesla because he has a huge heart?
C’mon man, let’s be realistic. He took huge risks with his paypal fortune, but let’s not pretend it wasn’t done under the auspices of capitalism where making larger sums is about doing more good for more people. His risk of ruin was unnecessarily high, and it seems plausible that there was altruism here.
But sinking his fortune into his next things was expressly done as a potential means to continue scaling said fortune.
这是一种相当理想化，坦率地说，相当荒谬的观点。你真的认为他仅仅出于无私的动机，因为有一颗善良的心，就决定创办特斯拉吗？
拜托，让我们现实一点。他确实用他在PayPal积累的财富冒了巨大的风险，但我们别假装这并非是在资本主义的名义下进行的，因为在资本主义中，赚取更多财富是为了为更多人创造更多利益。他承担的风险过高，似乎其中确实包含了一些利他主义的因素。
但是，将他的财富投入到他的下一个项目中，显然是为了继续扩大他的财富。

Starting a car company isn’t what you do if you want to grow your fortune - its almost guaranteed to fail. In fact starting a car company, or a rocket company has to be possibly the highest risk lowest return ways to use a fortune. I don’t think this is model capitalist behaviour, and I think that it why Elon has caught the imaginations of many.
如果你想增加你的财富，创办一家汽车公司是不可能的——它几乎注定会失败。事实上，创办一家汽车公司，或者一家火箭公司可能是风险最高、回报最低的财富使用方式。我不认为这是典型的资本主义行为，我认为这正是埃隆吸引了众多人心的原因。

As with almost all Elon’s projects he does think ahead. Yes the risks he took was almost insane. The risk of losing everything was enourmous, he himself said that he thought there might be a 10% chance that he will succeed.
But he said that he did not do it for the money, it is pretty clear that he could’nt care less about the money or else he would have taken a massive CEO salary which he does not. He runs a company with investors that demand profit so it is not like he is running a non profit org.
就像埃隆的几乎所有项目一样，他会提前考虑。是的，他所冒的险几乎是疯狂的。冒的是失去一切的巨大风险，他自己说他认为他可能有10%的机会会成功。
但他表示他这么做并非为了钱，这相当清楚，他根本不在乎钱，否则他早就给自己开一份巨额的CEO薪水了，但他没有。他经营的是一家有投资者要求利润的公司，所以他不像在经营一个非营利组织。

The reason we all adore him so is not for his success but what he did with that success… he is a billionare now sure, but started Tesla etc. As a multi millionare and created a company knowing it most likely will fail and cost him his fortune, he did it anyway because he felt it was important enough.
We adore him for his rags to riches story… he is living the dream and proves that with creativity and hard work and a fair bit of luck we can all become giants!
我们之所以如此崇拜他，并不是因为他的成功，而是因为他如何利用这些成功…他现在确实是个亿万富翁，但他是在成为千万富翁时创办了特斯拉等公司。他明知这家公司很可能失败，会让他失去财富，但他还是这么做了，因为他觉得这很重要。
我们崇拜他是因为他的白手起家故事……他正在实现梦想，并证明了只要有创造力、努力工作和一点运气，我们都可以成为巨人！

We do not worship Elon we support what he is doing because we all want to believe that if we were in the same situation we too would have done something to better the world like he has. If he makes a couple of billion on his path then so be it… we dont care because at least he will use that money to do the next great thing to improve humanity like world wide fast internet with satelites… That might not affect you but it will me living in Africa…
So i will keep on rooting for him as longs as he does stuff that benefit humanity.
我们并不是崇拜埃隆·马斯克，而是支持他所做的事情，因为我们都希望相信，如果我们处在同样的境地，我们也会像他一样做出改变世界的努力。如果他在这个过程中赚了几亿美元，那又怎样……我们并不在乎，因为至少他会用这些钱做下一件伟大的事情，比如通过卫星提供全球高速互联网……这可能对你影响不大，但对我生活在非洲的人来说，意义非凡。
因此，只要他继续做出有益于人类的事情，我就会一直支持他。

Appreciate the candor Berto, and I’m definitely not discounting the inspiring qualities a man like Elon Musk certainly has, in spades. He’s a marvelous technologist and one of the single most innovative people on Earth at present. The Great-Man Myth My initial comment was based on the kind of ideas espoused in the MIT Technology Review article lixed above. “It’s precisely because we admire Musk and think his contributions are important that we need to get real about where his success actually comes from.” His own ex-wife says that he has Balls of Steel. He took massive risk making very big bets that were more likely to go to zero than payoff handsomely. But let’s not pretend. At the core of the innovations is the capitalist mindset of earning Return on Capital. To say otherwise is, to put it simply, nothing more than mythologizing. And that has nothing to do with him being an inspiring figure, which he most definitely certainly absolutely is!
感谢你的坦率，贝托，我当然不否认埃隆·马斯克这样的男人拥有令人鼓舞的品质，他确实非常具有创新精神。他是一位出色的技术专家，也是当今世界上最具创新力的人之一。我最初的评论是基于MIT《科技评论》文章中提出的观点——“正因为我们钦佩马斯克并认为他的贡献很重要，我们才需要真正理解他成功的来源。”他的前妻曾说他拥有钢铁般的勇气。他冒着巨大的风险，做出了很多看似更可能失败而非成功的大赌注。但我们不能自欺欺人。创新的核心是资本主义思维——追求资本回报。说其他的，其实不过是在神话化他而已。而这并不妨碍他成为一个非常鼓舞人心的人物——这一点毋庸置疑，他确实是！

You could say that about anyone but someone who outworks everyone in his companies to the point he doesn’t even have time to spend his money. This is a guy who is already a multi billionaire but constantly works 80–100h weeks to make everything work. I’ve never worked a 100h week. I worked 84 and its brutal, and it wasn’t doing anything even near as important as the stuff he is doing. Good try there pal, but I think the majority of us know that this man doesn’t give a toss about his money.
你可以对任何人说这样的话，但对于像他这样在自己公司中比所有人都努力工作，甚至没有时间花钱的人就不成立了。他已经是亿万富翁，但每周依然工作80到100小时，拼命去实现一切。我一周的工作时间从未有过100小时。我曾工作过84小时，确实非常辛苦，而且做的工作也远比不上他现在在做的事。你这么说算是努力反驳，但我想大多数人都知道，这个男人根本不在乎他的钱。

In some comments I can see a lot of criticism for Elon Musk, to the extent that he is doing everything that is bust, like a serial failure catastrophe, and it gives me a feeling of amusement. Come on, give him a credit for pathbreaking work that he has ventured out.
How many people can do such an extent of work in territory that is not ventured yet? He has an ability to see something that run of the mill entrepreneur is not able to see.
Tesla: make EV, in millions, with computer controlled battery cooling, and hang on, it is basically a software on wheels.
在一些评论中，我看到很多人批评埃隆·马斯克，甚至认为他所做的每一件事都充满失败，是一连串的灾难，这让我感到有点好笑。拜托，应该给他一些肯定，至少对他所做的开创性工作给予认可。多少人能在那些尚未被探索的领域做出如此大的努力？他有能力看到那些普通企业家无法察觉的机会。
就像特斯拉：制造出无数辆电动汽车，配备电脑控制的电池冷却系统，而最重要的是，它基本上就是一款“行驶中的软件”。
In some comments I can see a lot of criticism for Elon Musk, to the extent that he is doing everything that is bust, like a serial failure catastrophe, and it gives me a feeling of amusement. Come on, give him a credit for pathbreaking work that he has ventured out.

SpaceX: let’s go to Mars, he announced one fine day, people gasped and protested and ridiculed, he was not bothered. make reusable rockets and make Falcon Heavy that can transport 100 tons cargo and 100 people at the same time. Tens of rockets have been already reused, and NASA has already found a cost effective alternative to Russian Soyuz.
Come on, he has an audacity to make a factory to manufacture Starship, in 100s of numbers, running between Earth and Mars, like a ferry running between two shores. I can not find one entrepreneur from current generation who has this level of audacity.
Starlix: make a constellation of floating satellites to provide high speed internet to every point on the globe mainly as an income device to fund SpaceX.
SpaceX：有一天他宣布“我们要去火星”，大家惊讶、反对、甚至嘲笑他，但他根本不在乎。他造出了可重复使用的火箭，还研发了猎鹰重型火箭，能同时运载100吨货物和100人。已经有数十次火箭成功回收使用，而NASA也找到了比俄罗斯联盟号更具成本效益的替代方案。
他居然敢建立一家工厂，生产数百辆星际飞船，让它们像渡船一样在地球和火星之间来回穿梭。实话说，我找不出一个现在的企业家有这样的胆量。
Starlix：制造一个浮动卫星星座，为全球每一个地方提供高速互联网，主要是作为为SpaceX提供资金的一种收入手段。

BoringCo: may not be advanced success, but to transform intercity transportation like never thought before.
Neuralix: Control human mind to external devices, again path breaking.
Elon is an example of how an engineer thinks and how an engineer should think for uncharted potential territories. Obviously his companies will go through capital cycles, and market will decide their future viability whether they would flourish or perish, but to ridicule a visionary who has a courage to venture alone, is bit amusing.
BoringCo：可能并没有取得极其突破的成功，但它确实在改变城市间交通方式方面实现了前所未有的创新。
Neuralix：通过外部设备控制人类大脑，再次开创了先河。
埃隆是一个典型例子，体现了工程师的思维方式以及在未开拓的潜力领域中工程师应有的思考方式。显然，他的公司会经历资本的起伏周期，市场将决定它们未来的生存能力，即它们是会蓬勃发展还是会走向衰败。然而，嘲笑一个有勇气独自踏上冒险之旅的远见卓识者，这未免有些滑稽。
