Tesla Owners Silicon Valley(@teslaownersSV):Elon Musk on why he wouldn't let SpaceX or Tesla die in 2008, even with only $40 million left: "To me, the company's like kids. If you got two kids, how could you really say, okay, we're gonna let one kid starve?" He split what was left of his PayPal money between both. SpaceX's fourth launch reached orbit. Tesla closed its financing round at 6 p.m. on December 24th, 2008, the last hour of the last day possible. Both could have gone bankrupt. Both are still here. @elonmusk
