Billionaire’s Surprising Revelation at Hamptons Gala
In a revelation that left attendees in awe, Elon Musk, the enigmatic CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, declared his wish to die “off the coast of Mars” during a surprise appearance at Michael Milken’s annual Hamptons Prostate Cancer Foundation gala. The event, held before an audience of fellow billionaires, showcased Musk’s characteristic blend of ambition and eccentricity.
The Mars ambition
Musk, who has long harbored dreams of colonizing Mars, reiterated his commitment to the Red Planet with a dramatic twist. According to an attendee, Musk expressed a desire to meet his end in a space capsule orbiting Mars. “He wanted to die in a capsule off the coast of Mars,” the person reported.
The conversation covered various Musk-related topics, including his space project Starlink, and an update about its Neuralink brain chip patient. Musk humorously lamented his poor cell service, stating, “I had important texts to respond to on the way here and couldn’t… people were asking where I was, Timbuktu?”
In a peculiar turn, Musk also mentioned a $100,000 role he is offering at Tesla, though details of this “strange role” remain unclear.
Interestingly, Musk’s speech steered clear of politics, save for a few remarks on immigration—a frequent topic on his social media platform X. This apolitical stance comes despite Musk’s recent political engagements, including endorsing Donald Trump and contributing significantly to a GOP-supporting PAC.
A standing ovation and family ties
The talk concluded with a “standing ovation” from the crowd, a testament to Musk’s influence and charisma. His mother, Maye Musk, also made an appearance, accompanying her son to the charity event.
Musk’s presence at the gala was marked by an exclusive set-up. “There was a whole private section set up for him in the outdoor space that they had covered with plants and fabric, so no one could see in,” described an insider. The billionaire was also seen preparing to attend nearby parties, with his four security guards conducting thorough checks to ensure the right “sound levels and right vibe.”
Elon Musk’s declaration of his ultimate wish to die “off the coast of Mars” adds another layer to his larger-than-life persona. As he continues to push the boundaries of technology and space exploration, Musk’s ambitions remain as lofty and unorthodox as ever.
