Elon Musk replied to a user, claiming that the SpaceX founder never wanted to be a CEO and was content with his 9-to-5 job as an engineer.
Elon Musk is the richest man on the planet, with a $210.7 billion net worth and companies like X (formerly Twitter), Tesla, and SpaceX under his name. His businesses are making new waves in the fields of science, space exploration, travel, and social media.
However, a user on X recently posted an old photo of the tech mogul and wrote, "Elon Musk used to rewrite code of engineers working at Zip2 after they went home, and used to work 120 hours a week. He never really wanted to be a CEO."
