That's total BS. At best, he got rich off his mom's money, as she was a reasonably successful actress and his dad was a chronically insolvent huckster.
But more realistically, he got rich after tripping into the online payment processing game on the ground floor and then platforming from elevator to elevator on the Endless Investor Cash Ride for the next ten years, while pocketing every public tax subsidy and government incentive he can get his grubby mitts on.
Elon hit the lottery once, then grifted his way to the top, fair and square. All his dad did was teach him the rules of the rigged game. He was the guy who took 3-card monte to the eleven-figure level.

This is literally a shitload of managers at small tech/marketing companies. Dummies, but they were buddies with the owners in the 00's and they were able to rake in money so they just kinda stuck around until they became the people who hold others to account for the money line going up/down
It's like when they photoshop Trump's head on Conan The Barbarian with the caption "Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.” Totally ignoring the fact that Trump is a upper-crust costal elite who was a liberal until 2015 then realized he could make more money off baying fascist hogs instead.
I am still amazed that his preening queeny ass convinced a bunch of corn fed Middle American hogs that he was one of them. I mean I know the answer, propaganda and he said the quiet part out loud. But it's still mind blowing 7 years later that it happened.
:matt-jokerfied: BUT HE LITERALLY IS A WEAK MAN, HE ONLY GOT RICH OFF HIS DAD'S MONEY AND BUYING HIS WAY INTO SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSES

Being strong is when you constantly capitulate to the man children crying about the woke mob being mean to them for saying the n word.
