Musk says he's homeless

Back in April, Elon himself revealed he was homeless and rotating among friends' houses.

Speaking in an interview with TED which aired on Monday, Mr Musk said he did not currently have a home and was staying with friends around San Francisco’s Bay Area.

“I don’t even own a place right now, I’m literally staying at friends’ places,” said the 50-year-old, who usually lives in Texas.

“If I travel to the Bay Area, which is where most of Tesla’s engineering is, I basically rotate through friends’ spare bedrooms."

The Tesla and Space X founder was asked by Chris Anderson, head of conference organisers at TED, about people who were hugely offended by billionaires before making the claims in the interview.

“I think there are some axiomatic flaws that are leading to that conclusion,” said Musk of the people offended by his wealth. “If, four sure it would be problematic if I was consuming billions of dollars of year in personal consumption but that is not the case."

In a related matter, Briefly News also reported Elon Musk’s head isn’t in the clouds. No, his dreams reach far beyond that to the stars that shine above us, to the uninhabitable planets in our solar system.

The 51-year-old surpassed Jeff Bezos as the richest man on the planet, but his aspirations were never financially motivated and the lack of luxury seen in his lifestyle proves it. As of 24 April, Elon Musk is worth a staggering $269.7 billion according to Forbes’ real-time billionaires rankings.
