Maybe, but good ol' Elon would be dead and gone if the US Federal Government hadn't come through with a contract that bailed him out.

He was literally begging people like Bezos to lend him money because he couldn't make payroll.

You sure about Bezos here? or was he Larry Page? I know Musk is friends with Page. Source - Musk's biography

It's been a while. However, he was begging from anybody and everybody--it could very well have been both.
