    His dad had shares in an emerald mine according to himself in an interview with Forbes in 2014. He also went to expensive ivy league colleges.

    He isn’t nouveau rich, even though he wants to convince the internet that he is.

      Ok, second generation nouveau rich. Old money are people who were aristocrats 1,000+ years ago. Elon had to work and still works like every other worker. Old money don’t know what work is for centuries. The gap between the poor and Musk is about the same as between Musk and some old duke family from England.
