"To save legal fees, we just copied the SpaceX articles of incorporation"

What?! Such fees must be, at most, a few thousand dollars; it seems really weird that someone worth what Musk is would do this just to save (what is for him) pocket change.

When Musk was interviewed in Wharton's podcast, one of the key points he pushed was the ability of a startup to keep burn rate low. It appears that his philosophy on spending is genuine, and not just lip service, which I find pretty refreshing.
