So the fact that he may be a fraudster is irrelevant to you?

By the way, he didn't start Paypal or Tesla.

Indeed, this is important to remember - he actively rewrites history to make it seem he founded Tesla, he even bought out the actual founder(s) of Tesla (Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning) so they wouldn't keep bugging people about the fact he / they founded it.

"he didn't start Paypal" - What?

Yeah, he absolutely did start PayPal which came out of merger between X.com (the company he founded) and Confinity (the company Peter and Max founded).
