Yes, he started Tesla and then just gave up as it was too hard. Started a space company and never got rockets into space, let alone the largest one ever...

what's also scary is that he could do this with pretty much every public company he wants (very few exceptions of companies with >200B market cap or so).

I suspect he doesn't have that much liquidity. Twitter is number 484 by market cap.
