Elon Musk Thought Tesla Would Probably Fail
Elon Musk was on "60 Minutes" tonight, talking about his two big companies: Tesla and SpaceX.
In the segment, Musk says he expected Tesla to fail:
Scott Pelley: How did you figure you were going to start a car company and be successful at it?
Elon Musk: Well, I didn't really think Tesla would be successful. I thought we would most likely fail. But I thought that we at least could address the false perception that people have that an electric car had to be ugly and slow and boring like a golf cart.
Scott Pelley: But you say you didn't expect the company to be successful? Then why try?
Elon Musk: If something's important enough you should try. Even if you - the probable outcome is failure.
