WSJ journalists discovered that some top managers of Elon Musk’s companies not only knew that he used drugs, but were also directly involved. They were afraid of upsetting the billionaire and losing social capital.

Previously, the same publication reported that Elon Max used cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy, etc. d. at closed parties. The billionaire himself denied everything, noting that no traces of drugs were found in his blood for the last three years.

Drug use by top managers

The WSJ published a new investigation into drug use by Elon Musk and his circle. It claims that several current and former directors of Tesla and SpaceX attend parties with the billionaire, go on exotic vacations, and have fun at festivals.

The newspaper notes that Musk has created a culture around himself in which those around him believe that they are expected to behave in the same way as the billionaire – this also applies to drug use. They think that rejection might upset the billionaire and they try to avoid it – cooperation has brought them a lot of money and social capital.

Top managers of Elon Musk's companies have deep personal and financial connections with a billionaire entrepreneur. This also raises doubts among shareholders about the independence of members of the board of directors. Such conflicts of interest may conflict with the loose rules that govern what qualifies as independence in public companies.

Drugs and Elon Musk

• In early January, The Wall Streat Journal published an article in which, based on the words of concerned executives and members of the boards of directors of Elon Musk’s companies, they noted that The billionaire actively uses drugs. We are talking not only about marijuana, but also about much heavier drugs.
• Those close to Musk said that when he attended closed parties, participants signed non-disclosure documents and handed over their phones. All so that the billionaire can safely take illegal drugs. For example, at a party in Los Angeles he took LSD, in Mexico he took psychedelic mushrooms, and in Miami he took ketamine. Sources also add cocaine and ecstasy to the list of his hobbies.
• At the same time, Elon Musk himself denied this article. He noted that, at the request of NASA, he underwent random drug testing for 3 years. According to him, no traces of any drugs were found on him.
