Even his iconic Tesla car makes no profit and other projects are doing even worse than in terms of income
Projects like Hyperloop, an expedition to Mars, using rockets to transport people between continents, are plain stupidity in terms of business perspective.

also even if some of those projects will eventually succeed there will be nowhere near that much profit as expenses.
