Sure, but the company he bought shares basically no resemblance with the current Tesla positive and negative. When he entered they had only the original roadster and that only in very small numbers

Yeah, that is how small companies start.

When he entered, there were no cars produced yet. Elon entered in '03, the first Roadster was produced in '08.

Yeah, they had a drive train, and no real path forward. Even with piles of cash, it took years to get something that resembled a finished product.
