Nevada Alexander Musk’s father, Elon Musk
Born Elon Reeve Musk on June 28, 1971 in Pretoria, Transvaal, South Africa, he is the son of Maye Musk, a model and dietitian, and her husband, Errol Musk, a South African pilot, electromechanical engineer and sailor. Elon is the oldest of three and has a younger brother, Kimball, and a sister named Tosca. He had a difficult childhood as his parents divorced when he was nine years old, after which he went to live with his father, his own decision but which turned out to be the wrong one – he is now estranged from his father, and refers to him as a terrible person.
During his childhood he was bullied by his peers, and at one point he was thrown down a flight of stairs by a group of boys, hit his head in the pavement, lost consciousness and had to undergo a nose job.
However, he developed an interest in computers while spending time on his Commodore VIC-20. He learned Basic on his own, and when he was only 12 years old, he sold the code of a BASIC-based video game – “Bastar” – to PC and Office Technology magazine for about $500. He went to the Waterkloof House Preparatory School and later Bryanston High School, but eventually graduated from Pretoria Boys High School.
He wanted to enroll in a university in the US, but his father was against it, so he attended the University of Pretoria for five months before enrolling at Queen’s University. Determined to move to the US, Elon migrated to Canada in June 1989, knowing how easy it is to get to the US from there, especially since he had been given a Canadian passport, thanks to his mother who was born in Canada. Three years later, he reached the US and enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania, where he studied business and physics and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics and Economics.
Career
Elon is now one of the most successful entrepreneurs involved in various industries and multiple projects. His first company was Zip2, a web software company that he started with his brother. However, his first major project was X.com, an online financial service and email payment company. This was in 1999 and in 2000 he merged with Confinity, which owned the money transfer service PayPal. By integrating its service into PayPal, the entire company became PayPal in 2001.
However, Musk disagreed with the rest of the board and was fired as CEO, though he remained on the board. Nevertheless, PayPal was sold to eBay in 2002 for $1.5 billion, and Elon received $165 million from stock he owned. 15 years later, Elon bought the X.com domain from PayPal and said it had sentimental value to him.
Since 2001, Elon has worked for SpaceX, a company focused on space exploration, and Tesla, Inc, an electric vehicle development company specializing in battery energy storage, solar panels and the production of solar roof tiles.
Elon Musk Personal Life and Net Worth
Speaking of his personal life, after Nevada Alexander’s death, Elon and his now ex-wife Justine became parents of five children, all born through in vitro fertilization. The couple divorced in 2008 and now share custody of their children. He then began a romance with actress Talulah Riley, whom he married in 2010 – the two divorced two years later, but remarried in 2013, but their relationship failed and in 2016 they divorced again. In 2018, he began a relationship with Canadian musician Claire Boucher, better known as Grimes.
In January 2020, she announced that she is expecting their first child.
Elon’s successful business module has increased his net worth by a large margin, and his net worth is estimated to be over $32 billion by early 2020, according to authoritative sources.
Nevada Alexander’s mother, Justine Wilson
Born Jennifer Justine Wilson on September 2, 1972 in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, she grew up in her hometown and enrolled at Queen’s University in Kingston after high school.
