Your post is like a half written sentence.

Just because someone has had success in the past, doesn't guarantee that they will in the future. 

There are plenty of factors that affect whether someone will be successful or a failure outside of their own decisions or who they are. 
Plenty of big companies have multiple wildly successful ventures, that find themselves with big failures. 

With pictures being worth 1000 words, I'd say it's more like a bunch of paragraphs. Is the glass half full or half empty?

As others have said here, if Twitter falters and fails, then it's not like Elon wasn't expecting it, and it's not like he can't afford it either.

Considering it's being said here that he's clearly a conservative, and the conservative Twitter catch phrase right now is burn it to the ground, he'd be like a.. God to them if he failed. Talk about a win win situation.
