Elon Musk is a 'negative role model': PayPal Co-founder Peter Thiel

PayPal Co-founder Peter Thiel, at a recent UCLA event, said, "Elon [Musk] is terrific, his companies are great, the innovations have been great...but he functions as a negative role model." "If you tell a young person 'why don't you be like Elon', the basic response is 'well that's too hard, I can't do that'," Thiel added.
