"I'm looking at the comments and seeing a lot of people saying it's not true. Don't expect people to dress to kill before you believe they have made it. I've never seen Elon musk wear anything more than a t-shirt or suit. No bling bling. Our people should stop sizing people's wealth by what they wear please."
