name a single grand master plan that elon has ever pulled off

Still waiting for Teslas driving from west to east coast completely autonomously. And Elon flying to mars.

Uh, the first one. It's all downhill after that. It's the only one he's ever pulled off. Look at the goals for the master plan part 2 and you'll see that they haven't managed to do a single one, but Elon still went ahead a published a part 3. Why actually meet goals when you can just pretend you've met them by posting new ones, I guess.

Weren't all his companies successful in the end?

The companies he took over after they were were founded?

Okay? Taking over a company, growing it, and then selling for huge profit is still good business sense.

He's a douchebag and takes too much credit for the engineering that has made them successfull, but SpaceX has delivered some next-level rockets and Tesla has been very successful creating a new market niche and selling a ton of cars
