Elon Musk’s son is the richest billionaire in the world, but his father is not proud

Errol Musk revealed why he is not proud of his billionaire son on live radio. He also revealed that he has never received a gift from the Tesla CEO.

Elon Musk is famous for being an eccentric billionaire, he often does things that other billionaires never do. However, that difference has helped this billionaire affirm his position as one of the greatest entrepreneurs in the world.

As a teenager, Elon Musk was a shy, introverted boy. His later success was more or less influenced by his reticent father, Errol Musk (76 years old).

Not proud of having a billionaire 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥

Errol Musk recently appeared on Kyle and Jackie O’s show for a 20-minute interview. In this rare appearance, Elon Musk’s father shared his relationship with his billionaire son.

The Tesla CEO’s father said Elon had “crossed the line” of success, but it wasn’t a surprising result. “Your son is a genius. He has a huge fortune and has created a lot of things, does that make you proud?” Jackie O asked.

Mr. Errol’s answer surprised the audience as well as the host: “No! You know, we are a family that has done a lot of things for a long time. It’s not like we suddenly found a new field and became successful overnight.”

When they lived in South Africa, Elon Musk’s family was known to be well-off. However, Errol Musk always asked his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren to do chores that were usually done by servants and maids, such as cleaning the house and mowing the lawn. At that time, this was considered quite strange.

Accordingly, this billionaire’s father is known to be an engineer from South Africa. After his parents separated, Elon Musk, then 8 years old, lived with his father for a while before moving to Canada with his mother and siblings. That short period of time greatly influenced Elon Musk, contributing to the success of the “eccentric genius” later on.

Distant but still silently caring

Host Jackie O asked the South African engineer if he owned a Tesla. The answer was “no”, he currently drives cars like Bentley, Rolls Royce and Mercedes.

Errol said he has never received a gift from his billionaire son. He also revealed that Elon’s younger brother, Kimbal, is his “pride and joy.”

Elon Musk’s father said: “We are a very frugal family, even stingy. If someone wants to spend anything, they have to answer 100 questions why. Elon lives very simply. To this day, my son still wakes up and goes to work at 6 am.”

Errol said his billionaire son is not as happy as people imagine. The Tesla CEO even thinks he is five years behind schedule. “It’s understandable that my son is disappointed with what he’s doing,” the 76-year-old said.

“I know it sounds absurd, but to me, Elon is still like a 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥. He’s 50 now, and I still think of him as a boy.”

After seeing the latest photo of his son, Errol Musk could not hide his concern. He hopes Elon pays more attention to eating and living a more moderate life. “Elon was trained to be a tough man but does not know how to take care of himself,” the Tesla billionaire’s father expressed.

Errol Musk said he was also very worried about Elon’s relationship status. He believed that his son would never find a woman who would give up her career to be a part of his life.

In contrast to his close relationship with his mother Maye Musk, tech billionaire Elon Musk has a strained relationship with his father. Although he has praised his father for his outstanding intelligence, the Tesla CEO has admitted that he is not close to Errol. In fact, the two have had many disagreements over the years.
