    Being autistic, he does tend to be rather focussed on his obsessions.

    I have no issue with people being focused or obsessed - I just can't believe how many people fall for all the clap trap that come out of his mouth - he's a straight up con man IMO - sucking millions of dollars out of 'investors' for his bat **** crazy ideas. Even when the science proves him to be wrong the Electric Jesus followers will defend him to the death for some unknown reason.

    But I'm guessing you think that the hyperloop is a something that can be made to work...

    Suspect his hay days have come and gone. His 20 kids (kidding) ****ed off offended Divers ( not kidding) and legal cases are ballooning and mounting pressures As is his weight- He can take up running/walking/swimming or non Electric biking to help that.

    Honestly refused to buy Tesla shares. In hind sight that was more fool me of course as 2020 to date would have been a wild money ride.

    that said I am fairly sure all of you with superannuation funds have some Tesla shares indirectly

    The hyperloop could be fun, if it worked.

    You're probably right. Time will tell.

    The time has already come and gone - the last vestiges of hyperloop are on their death bed now. The concept goes back almost 100 years, it’s not new, but the physics of generating a vacuum of that magnitude doesn’t work (outside of space that is) Autonomous Vehicles

    The 'final frontier' is not that 'perfect'.

    Maybe good enough for an investor prospectus though.

    According to Wikipedia, the concept goes back to 1799 - a little more than 100 years!

    (I'm afraid i had to look up "hyperloop", as I had forgotten what name musk had put on it. Having looked into it when he first proposed it I had completely dismissed it. I remembered the concept, but not the name.)
