How They Used These Skills

Musk has used his skills to make a ton of companys like tesla and space-x

Challenges Overcome

n September 2018, Musk was sued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a tweet claiming that funding had secured for potentially taking Tesla private (at a price of $420 a share, an alleged reference to marijuana). The lawsuit claimed that verbal discussions Musk held with foreign investors in July 2018 did not confirm key deal terms and thus characterized the tweet as false, misleading, and damaging to investors, and sought to bar Musk from serving as CEO on publicly traded companies. Musk called the allegations unjustified and that he had never compromised his integrity. Two days later, Musk settled with the SEC, without admitting or denying the SEC’s allegations. As a result, Musk and Tesla were fined $20 million each, and Musk was forced to step down temporarily as Tesla chairman while remaining Tesla’s CEO.

Significant Work

Musk has created Space-x as well as Tesla which he resigned following controversy. Musk has also been apart of multiple projects like PayPal (but when it was made it was call X.com). Musk has had 7 kids (one deceased)
