Yeah, that trillionaire Musk is quite the failure!

Musk has degrees in Physics and Economics, but not engineering. The Physics 
I studied as a requirement for my Chemistry degree covered some of 
electrical and mechanical engineering; DC and AC Circuit Analysis, Strength 
of Materials and Statics, which is beam and column strength, plus some 
Orbital Mechanics (rocket science). I learned enough of the basics to 
understand complex explanations of new developments later as I became 
involved in R&D.

As CEO his task is knowing who to assign to a problem rather than how to 
solve it himself. It's said and apparently true that the reward for success 
in engineering is being assigned to a team with a more challenging project.
