        Leaded gas just started being phased out in the US in 1973 was still in use in the 80s was didn’t stop entirely until 1996. South Africa didn’t ban it until sometime between 2002 and 2006. It’s often used in reference to boomers, but gen x was also affected, even millennials to a lesser degree.

          Leaded gas can be used even today by some small propellor planes. At least in my country. I know about leaded gas, but what does that have to do with what I said? If leaded gas was the reason Musk is the way he is, everybody in older generations would be like him.

        He tried to do this 20 years ago with PayPal. This is just a midlife crisis, no grand plan.
