Nevada Alexander Musk: Everything About Elon Musk’s Son
Nevada Alexander Musk Bio
Nevada Alexander Musk was Elon Musk’s first child. Elon Musk is a well-known tech billionaire. Nevada was born in Orange County, California, on May 18, 2002. His mother is Justine Musk, Elon’s first wife. Nevada died just ten weeks after he was born. Elon and Justine put him to bed, but when they woke up in the morning, he wasn’t breathing. When the paramedics got there and tried to wake him up, he had been without oxygen long enough for his brain to be permanently damaged. Nevada Alexander was on life support for three days in a hospital before his parents turned off the machine.
Nevada Alexander Musk’s Father, Elon Musk
Elon Reeve Musk was born on June 28, 1971, in Pretoria, South Africa. His mother, Maye Musk, is a model and dietitian, and his father, Errol Musk, is a pilot, electromechanical engineer, and sailor from South Africa. Elon is the oldest of three children. His two younger siblings are Kimball and Tosca. He had a hard childhood because his parents got a divorce when he was nine years old. After that, he chose to live with his father, which turned out to be a mistake because now he doesn’t talk to his father and calls him a horrible person.
During his childhood, he was picked on by his peers. Once, a group of boys threw him down a flight of stairs. He hit his head on the ground, lost consciousness, and had to have surgery to fix his nose.
But while he was playing with his Commodore VIC-20, he became interested in computers. He taught himself Basic, and when he was only 12, he sold the code for “Bastar,” a BASIC-based video game, to PC and Office Technology magazine for about $500. He went to Waterkloof House Preparatory School and then Bryanston High School, but he graduated from Pretoria Boys High School.
He wanted to go to college in the United States, but his father told him not to. Instead, he spent five months at the University of Pretoria before enrolling at Queen’s University. Elon moved to Canada in June 1989 because he knew it would be easy to get to the US from there. This is because his mother was born in Canada, so he already had a Canadian passport. Three years later, he moved to the United States and went to the University of Pennsylvania to study business and physics. He got a Bachelor of Science in physics and economics when he graduated.
Career
Elon is now one of the most successful businesspeople. He is involved in a lot of different industries and projects. Zip2, a web software company he started with his brother, was his first business. But X.com, an online financial service and e-mail payment company, was his first big project. This was in 1999, and in 2000, he joined forces with Confinity, which was the company that owned PayPal. After he added his service to PayPal, the company changed its name to PayPal in 2001.
But Musk didn’t agree with the rest of the board, so he lost his position as CEO but stayed on the board. Still, eBay bought PayPal for $1.5 billion in 2002, and Elon got $165 million from the shares he owned. After 15 years, Elon bought the X.com domain from PayPal. He said it was important to him because it reminded him of his father.
Elon has been working on SpaceX, a company that explores space, and Tesla, Inc., a company that makes electric cars and specialises in battery energy storage, solar panels, and solar roof tiles, since 2001.
Personal Life and Wealth of Elon Musk
In terms of his personal life, Elon and his now-ex-wife Justine had five children after Nevada Alexander died. All of them were born through in vitro fertilisation. After getting a divorce in 2008, the couple now has joint custody of their kids. Then he started dating actress Talulah Riley, who he married in 2010. They got a divorce two years later, but they got back together and got married again in 2013. However, their marriage didn’t work out, and they got a divorce again in 2016. In 2018, he started dating Claire Boucher, who is better known by her stage name Grimes.
She told them in January 2020 that she is going to have their first child.
Elon’s wealth has grown by a large amount because of how well his business has done. As of early 2020, reliable sources say that his net worth is over $32 billion.
Justine Wilson, the mother of Nevada Alexander
Jennifer Justine Wilson was born in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, on September 2, 1972. She grew up there and went to high school there. After high school, she went to Queen’s University in Kingston.
She got a degree in English literature and then moved to Japan, where she taught English to people who spoke another language. She met Elon at Queen’s University, where they were both students.
Jennifer is an author. Her first book was a modern fantasy called “Blood Angel,” which came out in 2005. The sequel, “Lord of Bones,” came out in 2008, and in the time between, she wrote “Uninvited.”
As of the beginning of 2020, sources say Justine’s net worth is about $5 million.
