Well, “soon moved to the United States (from Canada)” is a relative term…

Musk moved to Canada because his mother is Canadian. After briefly working at a couple of jobs, attended the highly ranked Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario for two years – where he met his first wife – before being snatched up by The University of Pennsylvania to complete his undergrad.

What an inspiring article. Loads of people wait for things to happen for them where as Elon put in the hard work and made his path. I will be adding him to my list of mentors as well.

Thanks for such a detailed article Nick! I had heard of Elon Musk but I wasn’t aware of all of the industries that he has his entrepreneurial hands in! Amazing individual!

Thanks Metz. I’m glad you found so many of the lessons valuable. I think you’re right to single out Musk’s work ethic: nothing else has been so important to his success.

Agreed. I’ve profiled a ton of entrepreneurs in this way and I admire Musk as much as any of them.
