@thestoneoak: In 1999, at just 28 years old, Elon Musk bought his first major luxury purchase: a McLaren F1 for approximately $1 million. He had just made about $22 million personally from the sale of Zip2 to Compaq. The CNN cameras documented the moment the car was delivered to his home, capturing Musk seeing the McLaren for the first time. At the time, the McLaren F1 was one of the rarest and fastest production cars in the world. Musk was visibly excited, saying there were only 62 McLarens in the world and that he would own one. The car later became part of Musk's early entrepreneurial story. He reportedly drove it extensively, putting around 11,000 miles on it before crashing it in 2000 while driving with Peter Thiel. #elonmusk #mclaren #SuccessMindset #Motivation #discipline
