Did they own a mine, or did Elon claw his way to billionaire-ness with nothing but bursaries and brains to help him? Hell, at this point it’s probably irrelevant.
There is no shortage of strain between Elon Musk and his father, Errol.
Elon Musk has even gotten to a point where he is concerned that he or members of his family face the threat of being kidnapped.
We can drop all pretences of the two being close following a bombshell interview Errol gave on an Australian radio station.
After publicly clashing with his son, Errol has made a point of staying out of the media limelight. He broke his silence this week.
When Errol Musk’s name first crept into the spotlight, with his son achieving other-worldly feats, little did we know the level of scandal going on behind the scenes.
Responding to Elon Musk calling him “evil” and a “terrible human being”, father Errol had some scathing things to say about his billionaire son.
His name is Errol, and he struck green when he landed in Zambia and acquired half an emerald mine by chance. It’s a pretty wild story.
We’ve been hearing a lot from Elon Musk’s dad lately, who seems hell-bent on portraying himself as a doting father. But if his children are to believed, it’s certainly not the case.
Parents beware: If Errol Musk is to be believed, signing your kids up for school sports is the first step to them becoming a cold-blooded killer.
