Elon Musk is part of a group of individuals which is discussed shortly but, in the deepest sense of the term, is changing the world. It has some similarities with Peter Thiel, which we discussed some time ago. They are united by the fact of being serial entrepreneurs and "contrarian-thinker", with the vocation to engage in projects with high risk and high potential impact. Finally, both have played an important role in the development of PayPal, entering the so-called "PayPal Mafia," the group of people who has contributed significantly to the new wave of startups in Silicon Valley in the first decade of the '00s.

Entrepreneurs and investors as Musk or Thiel, in the purest sense of the term, the agents of Schumpeterian creative destruction: direct their energies and their efforts to substantially change the sectors in which they operate, leading to discontinuity of a qualitative nature and trying to make it possible that, until a few years ago seemed impossible.
