Elon Musk is about to start producing ... sweets

Many people call businessman Ilon Mask a genius; he is respected by most of his colleagues, not to mention ordinary mortals. Someone, however, considers him a swindler, talking about how much he receives state subsidies, how he spends them and why his enterprises will go bankrupt tomorrow. Be that as it may, but Musk is a very extraordinary person, he manages to manage both the space company and the production of electric vehicles, plus he drills underground tunnels and tunnels for Hyperloop above the surface.

Now Musk has decided to open another production. Only this time, as it turned out, the new idea has nothing to do with high technology. We are talking about a confectionery factory (or factories, while it is precisely impossible to assess the scale of the idea), which will produce sweets.


The first of April seems to have passed, April Fool's Day was left behind a month ago. So it seems like the truth. And they believe the Mask as much as possible in such a strange situation. At the moment, the Mask tweet about the start of the confectionery production has already received about 200 thousand likes.

What kind of candies they will be, how much they will be produced and when the production starts is unclear. Nevertheless, Musk has already managed to promise that the new business will be so attractive that investors simply can not resist the desire to invest their money. At the moment, he is collecting ideas about what sweets should be released among users of Twitter and other social networks.


It all started with a dispute between Musk and Warren Buffett, who suggested that the opponent compete in the production of sweets. Musk criticized the concept of “economic moat” used by Buffett in his factories. This concept allows the company to earn more money than competitors, while being one of the market leaders. Musk believes that the most important thing is the speed of innovation.

Well, who is right and who is not - it will be possible to find out soon, because the launch of the production of sweets, no matter how advanced it may take, takes much less time than the development of space rockets.
