After leaving a bad marriage to raise her children, entrepreneur Elon Musk’s mother discovered her 3-year-old was a prodigy.
Known my child was a prodigy at 3
Model Maye Musk (75), mother of Elon Musk, claimed in a televised interview that she realised her son was a prodigy at 3 years old. Nobody believes this, including teachers.
“I always thought my son was exceptional. I took Elon to kindergarten at 3 years old and told the instructor he was a prodigy. Everyone was shocked. Elon is timid, thus others didn’t recognise his intellect that day.
I know since I’m Elon’s sole comfortable confidant. Elon used logic to talk to me and remember things from an early age “Ms. Maye said.
Elon Musk exclusively told his mother about his business ideas and plans to develop solar energy technology, electric automobiles, rockets, and spaceships as he grew up. …
When her son shared great intentions with Mrs. Maye, she always urged him to give up and take a break since she saw that he was working too hard and may be stressed. Elon often ignores his mother. We’ve all seen Elon Musk become the world’s richest billionaire.
Mrs. Maye concluded: “My son should be free to pursue his dreams. I told Elon to abandon several initiatives, but he never did. Everyone’s seen it.”
Mrs. Maye Musk said Elon Musk always had trouble communicating. Even as an adult, Elon Musk experienced this. Kimbal Musk, her second son, helped his brother Elon Musk make his initial commercial triumphs, Mrs. Maye added.
In 1995, the brothers and several partners started a software company. The company sold for 307 million USD in 1999. Musk received 22 million USD for his 7% stake in the company.
Elon didn’t have to explain his ideas to his coworkers and partners because his younger brother Kimbal did them for him.
After corporate success, Elon Musk realised he had to face the media and meetings.
Elon Musk must enter the “light” to improve his reputation and promote his future endeavours.
“When I first read an Elon interview, I was so astonished that I called my son to ask, “Hey Elon, did you really do an interview?” My son said no. Who would offer me rocket manufacturing equipment? I’ve never been interviewed until Kimbal did it for me.”
To give your kids a good home, end a poisonous marriage.
Mrs. Maye married engineer Errol Musk in South Africa at 22. The couple has three children: millionaire Elon Musk, farm-to-table restaurant chain owner Kimbal Musk, and filmmaker Toscar Musk.
However, her marriage was unhappy. Mrs. Maye divorced and took her three children since her horrible husband constantly screamed and shouted.
“Having a bad spouse is harder than raising three kids. My life is better without him. I didn’t have one at first. enough money to survive, but no scolding all day.
It’s hard to go since I’ve lived in fear for a long time, don’t trust myself, and don’t know whether I can survive, but I can. It was too horrible to return, so I fled to provide myself and my children a better life “Ms. Maye remarked.
Mrs. Maye worked multiple jobs to support her children after becoming a single mother: “I do everything, some jobs are far from home. Attending work in winter without enough clothes or shoes. I’ve always said life will be better if I work first.
I search for jobs all day to support my three children. I was rejected several times, but I kept going to discover the next opportunity.”
Later in life, Mrs. Maye Musk studied to become a nutritionist.
