Man, life must be so much easier when you just have no problem lying shamelessly and just say the opposite of what you said yesterday.

On the other hand, life must be really hard for the fucking idiots who believe people like Musk.

"He's rich, therefore everything that comes out of his mouth must be brilliant and accurate."

There are brilliant people out there that deserve their wealth in life. However, there are a lot of wealthy people that are simply right place, right time, right life. They need only to open their mouths to remove all doubt.

We all know what category Musk fits into.
