He's good to convince people to invest. That's pretty much everything he did the last decade. He just looked at who had great ideas, convinced people to invest in his plan to work on these ideas and employed the people who had these ideas. He's not the guy who as example had the idea for landing rockets, a hyperloop or anything. He just employed the guys who worked on it already years before just without the money so that they never managed to really build a big company.
That's at least what I get from Elon Musk. Perfect in convincing enough people with money to invest in whatever he starts but nothing of it was really his ideas. It's people like Lars Backmore who have the awesome ideas, they just didn't manage to get the money Musk does.
Too bad that people invest more in characters like Musk as in the ideas itself. Otherwise we would have a lot more successful projects with great minds behind it. But nobody cares about them...
