If Ashlee Vance's biography of Musk can be trusted, he worked different jobs as ancillary worker doing things like selling fruits, cleaning grain silos or even ovens in a factory.

As student he is said to have hosted parties for students in a house he and a fellow student had rented to pay for the rent (same source).

Not trolling, but the second point casts doubt on it all, given that I have a hard time imagining Musk hosting parties, let alone getting people to pay for them. This is also pre-hair, pre-money Elon Musk we are talking about.

No, I believe you, I am questioning the book itself. Either way, thanks for the link.
