    Hughes built aircraft, cars, dated addresses and owned casinos.

    He is the guy in charge of the spruce goose.

    Are you thinking of Hearst ?

        That’s playboy.

        Howard Hughes is who Tony stark is based on. Fascinating man.

          Yeah, that’s why I thought the Stark comparison was stronger with who we thought Musk was at one time lol.

          I see it now though, now that I understand who you actually meant.

            If you haven’t read about Hughes, do so. It’s interesting to see everything he did and what a celebrity he was. That’s who Elon wanted to be.

            Sadly Hughes died a horrible death. Was very odd as he got older due to his injuries.
