How a 12-Year-Old Elon Musk’s Intriguing Video Game Theory Baffled His Mother Beyond Belief

Parents are a gift from the universe, the last line of defense, who can save you from any fall you take. This is why they acquire a special place in everyone’s life and Elon Musk is no different in that regard. Despite being the richest man on earth and arguably one of the smartest people on the planet, he still finds himself losing to his mother.

A recent clip of a TV segment between the two surfaced on the internet that makes him seem like any other kid. Musk presented an anecdotal tale from his childhood and how he built a video game that he is now turning into reality. Being at the center of the race to become an interplanetary species is one of his life-long dreams, but the seeds of the idea spawned in his early teens.

Elon Musk stated, “Mom do you remember when I was 12 and I created my own video game called Blastar about a spaceship that battles aliens?”

His mother replied, “I do I remember they paid you $500, but you were too young to open a bank account so I had to open one for you. You Turn that video game about space into reality.”

Musk then added, “Unless you consider that our reality might be a video game, and we’re all just computer simulations being played by a teenager on another planet.”

Elon Musk plays video games even today

Evident by the aforementioned clip, the Tesla owner finds himself turning back to his childhood passion for video games. In several instances, Musk has highlighted his passion for great video games and how he picks them from time to time. At the time of Cyberpunk 2077’s release, he even praised CD Projekt RED for churning a beautiful game despite it failing to keep itself together.

The billionaire has even dropped a hint about making a serious investment into Take-Two Interactive, the parent company behind industry giant Rockstar Games. He even shared a rather funny meme about GTA V being milked to the ground.
