In October 2002, PayPal was obtained by eBay for US$1.5 billion in stock, of which Musk got US$165 million.
SpaceX
In 2001, Musk conceptualized “Mars Oasis”; a venture to arrive a scaled down exploratory nursery on Mars, containing food crops growing on Martian regolith, in an attempt to regain public interest in space exploration. In October 2001, Musk made a trip to Moscow with Jim Cantrell (an aviation supplies fixer), and Adeo Ressi (his closest companion from school), to purchase repaired Dnepr Intercontinental ballistic rockets (ICBMs) that could send the imagined payloads into space.
Tesla
Tesla, Inc. was incorporated in July 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, who financed the organization until the Series A series of subsidizing.
The two men assumed dynamic parts in the organization’s initial advancement before Elon Musk’s association.

Hyperloop
On August 12, 2013, Musk uncovered an idea for a rapid transportation framework consolidating diminished weight tubes in which pressurized containers ride on an air pad driven by linear induction motors and air compressors. Musk doled out twelve specialists from Tesla and SpaceX who labored for nine months, building up the reasonable establishments and making the plans for the transportation framework. An early plan for the framework was then distributed in a whitepaper presented on the Tesla and SpaceX online journals. The alpha plan was proposed to utilize partial vacuum to lessen aerodynamic drag, which it is speculated would allow for high-speed travel with relatively low power, with certain different highlights like air-bearing skis and a channel compressor to decrease air drag. The alpha plan reports assessed the aggregate cost of an LA-to-SF Hyperloop framework at US$6 billion, yet this sum is theoretical.
OpenAI
In December 2015, Elon Musk reported the formation of OpenAI, a not-for-profit artificial intelligence (AI) research company. OpenAI plans to create counterfeit general knowledge in a way that is protected and advantageous to mankind.

The organization, which is still in the soonest phases of presence, is focused on making gadgets that can be embedded in the human cerebrum, with the possible reason for helping people converge with programming and keep pace with headways in computerized reasoning.
