Elon Musk’s father has come out to say that he isn’t proud of his billionaire son.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and the world has been reacting.

According to him, the Tesla CEO doesn’t just give him money when he asks, and he never fails to question him repeatedly before parting with funds.

He added that Elon lives a very frugal life, and he is always up at work at six o’clock.

His words, “No. You know, we are a family that have been doing a lot of things for a long time, it’s not as if we suddenly started doing something.”

“We are a very frugal, stingy family. If I want to spend anything I have to answer 100 questions of why.”

“Elon lives a very frugal life. He’s up at work at six o’clock.”

WOW.
