Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers .

Even if we fail at creating a Mars colony that can grow without continuous support from Earth, the absurdly ambitious nature of the goal nonetheless results in the creation of alien-level technology that is crushingly better than competitors who merely aim for Earth orbit.
There is value in an audacious mission. Even when the end-goal is not directly capitalizable.
The tech required to master Mars is so badass that upon development it turns out to be remarkably valuable on Earth, not least because no other team has the determination to follow that hardest path.
I suspect that the option value of a Mars colony, fully considered, could be capitalized over an appropriate timescale. But the tech required to just barely make Mars viable is so massively performant on Earth, that it opens up all sorts of terrestrial option value that we otherwise might never have explored.

Prime @MikeTyson would have destroyed @jakepaul in 90 seconds. A 58yr-old Tyson went 8 rounds against a much fitter and very capable boxer half his age. Mock him all you like, but Mike’s got the heart of a lion, balls of steel, and will always be an absolute legend.

As the President of Kenya says, Starlink causes local competitors to provides better services
NEWS: 🇰🇪 Kenya President William Ruto explained yesterday how Elon Musk's @Starlink has created competition, causing existing players like Safaricom to provide better services.
“I have my CEO for Safaricom – Sometimes he's not very happy with me for bringing other characters like Elon Musk and others into the space. I keep encouraging Peter that competition makes you keep ahead and he's been doing pretty well, I must admit, he's really upped his game.”

My biggest mistake is weighing too much on someone’s talent and not someone’s personality.
I think it matters whether someone has a good heart. —Elon Musk
