In a shocking revelation, Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s mother Maye Musk revealed that she has to ‘sleep in the garage’ while visiting her billionaire son in the Texas, United States.The 74-year-old mother, who currently resides in New York City, opened up about her close relationship with her 51-year-old son.
Even though her son is the richest person in the world, Maye revealed that Elon is not interested in possessions at all.SpaceX’s headquarters are not very opulent.
Notably, California-based SpaceX is a company that manufactures spacecraft, conducts space launches, and provides satellite communications. “You can’t have a fancy house near a rocket site,” Maye told.
Earlier this year, Elon himself had stated that he doesn’t even own a home and stays at friend’s places. This came after he revealed, in 2020, his intention of selling all his properties. The SpaceX CEO then later said that his primary residence is a rental from SpaceX, worth $50,000.
I am selling almost all physical possessions. Will own no house.
