## Caption

Elon Musk’s mom says she knew he was a genius at 3 years old. But she wasn’t sure he’d do great things. “Many geniuses end up in a basement being a genius but not applying it.” At 12, Elon coded and sold his own video game. In the 1990s, he launched Zip2 when online maps sounded unrealistic. From there: PayPal, electric cars, rockets. Maye says she doesn’t like the word billionaire. She calls him “the genius of the world.” Her real point? Genius only matters if you apply it. #ElonMusk #MayeMusk #Entrepreneur #Startup #Innovation
