Tim and Yannis assess Elon Musk as brilliant but attention-hungry, contrasting him with the reclusive Warren Buffett who doesn't need public adoration.
- Elon Musk is brilliant but also kind of a huckster, all over the place, and loves fame.
- He's married to Grimes and names his daughter after computer code, always chasing attention.
- It's wild to have a billionaire who's one of the richest people on the planet doing things for Instagram.
- Old money like the Morgans and Rockefellers at least had the decency to stay locked away in castles instead of bothering people on Twitter.
- Warren Buffett stays in his little hut in Omaha as a goblin and just emerges like a groundhog to announce things are okay.
- There's something weird about a billionaire who wants the love and admiration of the people.
- Tim thinks Elon should just take his rocket ship and go to Mars instead of seeking public support.
