ELON MUSK AND HIS UNUSUAL, WITTY CHILDHOOD STORIES 

There are many stories about Elon Musk, the eccentric billionaire entrepreneur who has founded several successful companies such as Tesla, SpaceX, and The Boring Company. One weird story that has gained attention is about Musk's unusual childhood.


According to Musk, he had a difficult childhood, and he was often bullied by other children. To cope with the bullying, Musk developed an interest in reading and learning about various topics. However, he also had a unique habit of reading entire encyclopedias from cover to cover, reportedly finishing the entire set of the Encyclopedia Britannica by the age of 14.


In addition to his love of reading, Musk also had a fascination with technology and science fiction. He reportedly taught himself computer programming at a young age and created a video game called "Blastar" when he was just 12 years old.


Another strange story about Musk is his fondness for naming his children with unusual names. He has five sons, and each of their names has a unique meaning. His first son is named Xavier, which means "new house" in Basque. His second son is named Griffin, after the mythological creature. His third son is named Kai, which means "keeper of the keys" in Japanese. His fourth son is named Saxon, which means "sword-bearing" in Old English. And his fifth son is named X Æ A-Xii, which Musk has said is pronounced "X Ash A Twelve." The name has been criticized by some as being too unconventional.


These stories and quirks give some insight into Musk's unusual and creative mind, and they have helped to solidify his reputation as one of the most interesting and innovative entrepreneurs of our time.
