    What about Musk makes you think he’s polished? The time he randomly accused a diver of being a pedophile because he got his feelings hurt? Or when he told his customers to go fuck themselves? When he did a Nazi salute?

    The dude is the the most idiotic and unpolished famous person ever.

      Hmmmm. Nothing, I guess. ‘Polished’ is probably some unwanted prejudice baked into me, thinking a rich bastard must know how to present himself as businesslike to bankers and other such bastards, but sweet jeebers maybe you’re right. I’ve certainly never seen Musk be anything but an unwiped ass.

        He’s spoken live several times recently and “polished” is the last word I’d use to describe him.

        Anyone that thinks you have to come off as “polished” or intelligent to bankers and businessmen in order to get money out of them is clueless.
