Role model

Google tells me that Scrooge McDuck has an “estimated net worth at $315.36 quadrillion,” making him a good role model for Elon Musk.

The only concern in that possibility is that Scrooge is usually thought of as a greedy miser with the one interest of making money. There is no suggestion of him ever spending that money.

The Musk money, 1000 billion, is hard to imagine but a few billion here and there for medical research would be a good way to shake off any potential Scrooge McDuck comparisons.
