He doesn&amp;#x27;t care about how things are monitized (although in the case of Twitter, where he didn&amp;#x27;t build it from the start, he has to worry about it quite deeply).&lt;p&gt;There is nothing more complicated in his decision here. Elon is a visionary and a builder. That&amp;#x27;s all his ventures.</text></comment>
