Maye Musk joins Stuart Varney to discuss her son Elon Musk’s AI ventures, including his Grok platform. She also shares personal family stories, including sleeping in his Starbase garage and her new book on reinvention.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Long before Elon Musk was running multiple companies at once, his mother, Maye Musk, had a much simpler recommendation: pick one.<\/p>\n

Elon Musk\u2019s mother, Maye Musk, joined FOX Business\u2019 Stuart Varney on “Varney & Co.” to discuss her son\u2019s ambitions, his childhood and the advice he ignored before taking on some of his biggest ventures.<\/p>\n

Maye recalled a conversation with Elon after PayPal, when he was weighing what to pursue next.<\/p>\n

“And that\u2026came later after PayPal, when he said to me, should I do electric cars, or rockets, or solar energy? And I say, you’ve just worked so hard, just do one. So you see, he doesn’t listen to me,” Musk said.<\/p>\n

Instead, she said, her son went on to pursue several companies despite widespread doubts about whether they would succeed.<\/p>\n

Tom Hayes analyzes Tesla stock and discusses why the company is priced for perfection. Despite calling Elon Musk the Thomas Edison of our day, Hayes warns investors about the potential downside of the high-flying stock.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

“And then he did six companies, and they were all going to fail. Remember? Everybody’s fail, fail, fail and now I’m so proud of him,” she said.<\/p>\n

Maye said she noticed her son thought differently from an early age, recalling how he would become absorbed in deep thought as a young child before making observations that surprised her.<\/p>\n

“He was different because he would go into deep thoughts,” she said, adding that he was making profound observations as young as three years old.<\/p>\n

Looking back, Maye said her son’s ability to recognize, describe and figure things out was apparent when he was a child.<\/p>\n

“He could recognize things, and he can describe it, and I was saying, ‘that’s three-year-old, you know. He can figure out things,'” she said.<\/p>\n
