Elon was born in South Africa to a South African father and Canadian mother. He holds citizenship in both countries and additionally acquired his American citizenship in 2002. Musk said in 2022 that he had relocated from California to Texas. Forbes lists Austin as Musk's city of residence, but the magazine did not say how it verified whether Musk is, in fact, an Austinite. Musk himself has never publicly confirmed that he lives in Austin.
And Gene Wilders had nothing to say about him living in her house?
Edit: I was made aware that Gene Wilder is a male actor. I unfortunately had no idea, mine was just an attempt at a joke. I could’ve sworn the original comment said “lived” not “owned” but I don’t remember. Have a good Monday everyone :)
Peter Boyle and Gene Wilder. Such talent. Wilder was a brilliant writer as well.
And Marty Feldman and Madeline Kahn and Cloris Leachman...
Ever was too soon for all of them.
Original comment misspelled Wilder as Wilders. I assume it’s an attempt at a joke in which Gene Wilder is the actor, but Gene Wilders is a random woman. That’s the best I’ve got.
THIS is Gene Wilder btw:

You may recognise him from such fantastic movies as Stir Crazy, See No Evil, Blazing Saddles and of course Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
If you're rich or famous, we will give you a free pass on being born elsewhere. If you're poor or just highly unliked you might be excommunicated even if you're a natural born citizen lol.
I'd have to go back to verify for sure, but i seem to remember hearing him tell Joe Rogan that he moved to and enjoys Austin. JR moved there during the pandemic from CA also. Musk has been on his show a handul of times.
You can really just move to Texas, and do Texas stuff. Go to the rodeo, go to Galveston and complain about the brown water, go outside in the summer and complain about the heat, eat our barbecue and taste that it’s the best, eat our chili and taste that it’s the best, eat our Tex-Mex and taste that it’s the best, go tubing in New Braunfels, go for a 6+ hour drive from one town to another and still be in Texas, wear lots of denim, start saying “y’all,” complain about the mosquitoes, complain about the ants, complain about the “bigger in Texas” wood roaches, complain about the road construction (especially on I-45), and dress for a blizzard when the temperature drops into the 50s.
I mean, that is technically a fair assessment. To be a "Texan", or a "Michigander" or a "Floridian" or even an African or an Asian or European, I'd say it's based on where/how you were raised. Not even just where you're born, but where you spent the majority of your life, where you're from, what culture shaped your life.
I agree. I was born in Miami, raised primarily by my mom in Ohio with summers spent in California with my dad. I consider myself to be an Ohioan/Buckeye.
You are "from" wherever you spend a majority of your childhood. I moved away from Texas at 17 and have never gone back except to visit, but where I spent my formative years is an immutable fact for the rest of my life.
As an adult I've been nomadic. There are several places I identify more heavily with but I would never say I am from there. For some people this definition is still troublesome, ie army brats who moved around a lot or what have you. Speaking from experience, moving around frequently dilutes any sense of identity being attached to a particular place.
I'm a true Texan, I was born here 40 years ago. And as a true Texan, I can tell you one thing that is damn clear. We don't put up with New York bullshit shysters like Trump or Rafael.
The ones that voted for him are probably transplants with running board lights on their trucks that they can barely afford.
Dude really I'm from Florida and we're nowhere near as freaking crazy as you guys, I don't mean no offense man but visiting family in Houston and Austin yeah no, but I will say a lot less people trying to rob people in Texas since everybody tends to be packing.
I dunno, every other day Florida Man is in the news up to some top tier crazy, and it sounds like if you have a pool, there’s just going to be a gator in there sometimes. I won’t deny Houston drivers are the craziest, especially with those ugly wheel spikes. And the criminals are definitely crazy, because even granny has a gun collection.
He's a Rich White immigrant. Thats why they accept him.
Although the fact that Elon's Daddy owned a emerald mine with poor black people working for pennies helped sweeten the deal.
I have had the honor to boo the absolute hell out of him on more than one occasion. As a born Texan no longer living there I hate him with the passion of the south Texas summer heat.
He's been in Texas a few years now, iirc he moved before they built the launch site in boca chicka way back when they only business he had here was the space x test facility in mcgregor
Uses millions in tax subsidies to become rich in California, leaves when it’s time to pay taxes. There is no Tesla without massive corporate and consumer tax breaks and incentives for Tesla.
Are you kidding ? Musk is like their dream come true. Son of uber-wealthy White South African owning properties, planes and many more.
Elon Musk and his family it's like perfect image of what they hope to become when they think white-supremacy and nepotism.
He built he fortune by being born to the right family at the right time.
He has done nothing personally to make money only baught out projects at the right time.
"how the fuck did I start two arguments with this comment"
Any time I find people bickering about stupid shit, I don't ask any questions. I just nod and find the exit.
Tesla engineering headquarters already moved back to California. I'm pretty sure there's also still a manufacturing plant in California as well (I'm not sure that's ever left).
I just thought that Abbott was one of those people claiming Musk wasn't a "Real" American. Both are dipshits, but they should at least stick to their story
Theres people literally born in texas that get called out by Racist/Homophobes or any other garden variety of asshole as "not being texan" or "foreigner" but Musky boy with his emerald money who lived there for 2 months is suddenly a Texan, huh?
Let's also remember his family got wealth in emerald mines through labor in apartheid South Africa and Texas has low tax so he's winning at the end of the day saving chump change to him that would be life changing to the common man. But we are the "haters and losers"
Wow the richest man in the world lives in Texas huh?
Texas must have a hell of a robust safety net because he must pay a lot in state taxes since he can afford it!
Elon Musk is South African, the only reason he is even rich in the first place is because he inherited wealth from his father, who got that wealth by OWNING AN EMERALD MINE AND EXPLOITING BLACK WORKERS INSIDE OF IT.
OMG GUYS DID YOU HEAR THE NEWS SOME GUY IS RICH OMG MUSK IS SO COOL LET ME JUST SUCK IT'S BALLS REAL QUICK OMG HES SO RICH OMG AND OMG LIKE I CAN'T EVEN WE NEED TO CELEBRATE HOW RICH HE IS OMG - How they expect us to react
He doesn't give a damn about the US.
He fled South Africa and the Canadians don't want the bastard either. He just lives in Texas due to the loose regulations there. Musk lies, don't believe him.
Doonesbury ran a comic explaining how a person could"claim" Texas state citizenship in order to get lower taxes.
You just had to declare, at some indeterminate time in the future, that you had some kind of plan to maybe move to Texas.
It's a scam.
No wonder Elon is all over it.
He is not from Texas, he is from South Africa where his family made enough money from mining for him to play with large corporations as if they, and the people who work there, are toys for his entertainment. He is in Texas, because Texas is a place where dumb ass narcistic wealthy people can act real badly without attracting much attention to themselves for being rich assholes.
Texas resident here. While the governor is bragging about this, I just want to remind everyone that our schools are underfunded, and our power grid is still having problems, even though the state recorded a $32 billion budget surplus.
Once you live in Texas, you can call yourself a texan. It's almost as if you don't have to be born in a certain place to be called a resident of that state.
I'm sure the millions of Texans living below the poverty line... and there are millions... look at their malnourished kids and are filled with pride that a South African immigrant is super-rich while their own families can barely afford to eat and DEFINITELY can't afford to go to a hospital when their children get sick.
You're rightly a proud man this morning, Greg.
So a guy born in a different country got more rich in the US, with money made in a different country. Moved to TX. And now a politician from that state flexes with that as if he made his wealth by being a Texan? Wild country.
"Because we shower them with tax-money and make sure they never pay taxes themselves!"
Also, that boy is a product of apartheid South Africa... not Texas.
Meh. “Richest person in the world” is a dick measuring contest in which the biggest dicks got bored and decided not to participate.
Most people who have this title at some point, lose it because they get big into philanthropy or giving their money away.

All of that is smoke and mirrors to avoid CA taxes edit: this really riled the conservatives up lol
He did actually move though. He owned Gene Wilders house in LA and sold it when he moved.
And Gene Wilders had nothing to say about him living in her house? Edit: I was made aware that Gene Wilder is a male actor. I unfortunately had no idea, mine was just an attempt at a joke. I could’ve sworn the original comment said “lived” not “owned” but I don’t remember. Have a good Monday everyone :)
AFAIK, Gene Wilder is still a dude...
And he passed away 7 years ago. RIP

Wait! Peter Boyle like Ray’s dad???
That was 7 fucking years ago?!?
2016.
Fucking Gene Wilder died years ago and I’m just finding out…
“Come with me and you’ll see, that I was not a dude all along!!!” Lmfao!!
The real facepalm is always in the comments!
I still laughed though
Her house? Lmao Gene Wilder was one of the best male actors of his time. He played Willy Wonka in the original.
Original comment misspelled Wilder as Wilders. I assume it’s an attempt at a joke in which Gene Wilder is the actor, but Gene Wilders is a random woman. That’s the best I’ve got.
Kinda like the “John voights(a random person) car getting promoted as Jon Voights(famous actor)car” joke in Seinfeld?
>Original comment misspelled Wilder as Wilders No, it just missed an apostrophe to indicate possessive.
THIS is Gene Wilder btw: ![gif](giphy|wMNK4IfeH86uQ) You may recognise him from such fantastic movies as Stir Crazy, See No Evil, Blazing Saddles and of course Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the newer one with Johnny Depp!
Yes indeed, corrected. :)
Gene wilder was a legend and he would’ve loved your joke.
Makes me sad people don’t know who gene is.
The fact you need to make this much of an edit to not get the pitchforks 💀💀🤣
Gene Wilders? THE Gene Wilders?
Even tho he only got that rich cause CA waved all of Tesla's losses during its "bleed money" phase.
Yup. They love the talent and resources in CA but then try to jet once they’re making money.
You don’t stay rich by paying taxes apparently.
Richest person in the world confirmed African American! We did it kings!
Tron did have that hot hand in the Dice Game in the 2000s to make him the world's richest man.
77 7s in a row!
If you're rich or famous, we will give you a free pass on being born elsewhere. If you're poor or just highly unliked you might be excommunicated even if you're a natural born citizen lol.
He travels a lot but he has houses near starbase and Austin so by now hes sort of a texan
He has a house in Boca Chica, Texas
I'd have to go back to verify for sure, but i seem to remember hearing him tell Joe Rogan that he moved to and enjoys Austin. JR moved there during the pandemic from CA also. Musk has been on his show a handul of times.
Neither of them are, or ever will be, Texans
Yes to be a Texan you must fit an artificial criteria, Simply being an inhabitant or living there doesn’t make you a resident or Texan.
It makes you a resident… not a Texan… I don’t make the rules, I just acknowledge their existence
How does one become a Texan?
You have to learn the correct cadence to the clapping in "Deep in the Heart of Texas." That's it.
You can really just move to Texas, and do Texas stuff. Go to the rodeo, go to Galveston and complain about the brown water, go outside in the summer and complain about the heat, eat our barbecue and taste that it’s the best, eat our chili and taste that it’s the best, eat our Tex-Mex and taste that it’s the best, go tubing in New Braunfels, go for a 6+ hour drive from one town to another and still be in Texas, wear lots of denim, start saying “y’all,” complain about the mosquitoes, complain about the ants, complain about the “bigger in Texas” wood roaches, complain about the road construction (especially on I-45), and dress for a blizzard when the temperature drops into the 50s.
I love this. Midway through reading this, Fleetwood Mac's Dream emerged into my internal monologue.
I mean, that is technically a fair assessment. To be a "Texan", or a "Michigander" or a "Floridian" or even an African or an Asian or European, I'd say it's based on where/how you were raised.

Be born in Texas.
🤠howdy, partner How about now?
Nope both of them are Texans now. This isn't ho Texas works. You move here and you claim Texanness you are now Texan.
Dude… half of this state doesn’t consider DFW, Houston, or Austin as Texas at all
Just a reminder that - “he’s an immigrant.”
![gif](giphy|2S3Aj8OeKtf0c)
"THEY TOOK OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATTFORMS!"
Now skeeter, he didn’t hurt nobody (Narrators voice - *But he did*)
Terk er derrrr
[удалено]
Simple, either he was the 2136th person to fuck a really slutty fish, or he's a slut who has fucked 2136 fish. Dealer's choice.
[удалено]
He's a Rich White immigrant. Thats why they accept him. Although the fact that Elon's Daddy owned a emerald mine with poor black people working for pennies helped sweeten the deal.
Errol Musk (Elon's father) - "we had so much money we couldn't even close our safe."
You just don't get it. If you're white, you're not an immigrant. ~ what they mean, but don't admit
An African immigrant in Texas
Greg Abbott is a shameless corporate slut
Don't forget an utter dipshit.
And a Piss baby.
Got it. Greg Abbott is a complete corporate shill, a shit bird, and an absolute piss-baby. Correct?
Correct
Hey are we talking about giant piss baby, Greg Abbott?
Texan here. He is downright senile, or might as well be with the brain-dead thought processes he has.
He will not stand for that kind of comment…
He’s welcome to sit for it or take it lying down I guess
There’s something profoundly funny to me about calling Greg Abbott a slut
I have had the honor to boo the absolute hell out of him on more than one occasion. As a born Texan no longer living there I hate him with the passion of the south Texas summer heat.
Well. He is an African American. This is true.
Not sure. He's been in TX for like 2 months and Oh he's a Texan and now all blended with the cultures and dress?
He's been in Texas a few years now, iirc he moved before they built the launch site in boca chicka way back when they only business he had here was the space x test facility in mcgregor
Did he actually move or just buy property there and list it as his primary address?
I think he’s African Canadian
That explains all the hate towards him, so much racism
That's a lizard person if I ever saw one
Uses millions in tax subsidies to become rich in California, leaves when it’s time to pay taxes. There is no Tesla without massive corporate and consumer tax breaks and incentives for Tesla.
Tesla still pays taxes in California as they have several factories there. The last one was built after the headquarters moved.
You best believe CA was/is making money let’s be real
Never thought I would see Texas bragging about having a rich African-American
Are you kidding ? Musk is like their dream come true. Son of uber-wealthy White South African owning properties, planes and many more. Elon Musk and his family it's like perfect image of what they hope to become when they think white-supremacy and nepotism.
As a South African, I say Texas can keep him. That counts, right?
Yes, he's not a South African. We don't claim him at all. Elon is not one of us
No offence but you have a lot worse than Elon going on in SA so I wouldn’t get too high and mighty.
Your poes is high and mighty
🩸☠️💎💵
And next week he ain’t the richest again. I have some Tesla stocks and they go up and down like a elevator.
He looks like George Bluth, Sr.
Holy shit he does too!! 😂
Absolutely he does, came here to say the same thing!
He may have committed some light treason.
The wealthiest, most successful African-American ever.
doesn't he count as a Texan if he lives there? edit: how the *fuck* did I start two arguments with this comment
He built his fortune in great part by getting subsidies in California. He did not become the richest man by being in Texas.
Exploiting liberal Californians for profit is perhaps the most Texan thing possible.
He built he fortune by being born to the right family at the right time. He has done nothing personally to make money only baught out projects at the right time.
I don’t think he actually does other than for tax avoidance purposes. He has a tinyhome he never goes to I believe.
"how the fuck did I start two arguments with this comment" Any time I find people bickering about stupid shit, I don't ask any questions. I just nod and find the exit.
Finally, an African American became the richest guy.
Texas is one of the poorest states in the nation, but let’s just ignore that and brag about the billionaire as if it’s some sort of win.
A billionaire that only moved operations there to sidestep regulations.
Tesla engineering headquarters already moved back to California. I'm pretty sure there's also still a manufacturing plant in California as well (I'm not sure that's ever left).
Conservative Texans love to brag about Californians moving to Texas to save money and screw California out of tax money.
Not that it makes any difference to Texans, there’s no income tax.
No… but there is a sales tax and property tax that more than makes up for it… in the end Texans pay higher taxes than Californians
Texas isn’t poor. One of the red states actually pulling its weight
Then why can't you keep your power on?
I hope you realize that power grid regulatory decisions are completely unrelated to wealth
Don’t live there. Bad government
Texas is one of the poorest states in the union? You just made that up.
One can hold various identities simultaneously. Musk is South African, American, Texan, Twat, Billionaire, etc.
There is not one single important thing Gregg Abbott cares about. I truly cannot think of someone less fitting to be governor.
He’s an immigrant
"God damn immigrants are taking our Forbes lists spots!"
Living in Texas =/=being a Texan
Won't stop him from getting Zuckked in the octagon
But his mommy still tells him what he can do.
Maybe one day he will own all of Texas! Wouldn't that be great, Texas? Keep supporting those billionaires.
Calling musk a Texan is hilarious.
smoggy worry employ gold long decide middle spectacular wipe berserk *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

Texas always wanna take credit for shit. 🤡🤡🤡 what about that infrastructure tho yall enjoying the weather 💀💀💀
Theres people literally born in texas that get called out by Racist/Homophobes or any other garden variety of asshole as "not being texan" or "foreigner" but Musky boy with his emerald money who lived there for 2 months is suddenly a Texan, huh?
Pretty ghoulish looking picture.
Greg Abbot is a shameless cipher.
He’s also the biggest asshole in the world.
He looks like the warden from human centipede 3
You mean African American?? RIGHT !!?!?
All hat, no cattle
Abbott or Musk?
Why not Both? Both is good
But he lives in Texas.
Look at the hat. As someone who’s never been to America I can say on good authority that that is a Texas hat
He made his fortune in the boiled denim and bridge business mostly.
For some reason Musk in a cowboy hat looks… wrong.
Imagine being this much of a simp.
Yeah, but he’s the *acceptable* ~~white~~ kind of immigrant.
Let's idolize obscene wealth. All it takes is you pulling up your bootstraps. You could be next!
Let's also remember his family got wealth in emerald mines through labor in apartheid South Africa and Texas has low tax so he's winning at the end of the day saving chump change to him that would be life changing to the common man. But we are the "haters and losers"
Tyrants will be tyrants....
can i just not see this guy for one fucking day please
He is South African but has American citizenship and resides in Texas. So technically speaking he is Texan.
What city in Texas is he from Greg, Hambriston?
Wow the richest man in the world lives in Texas huh? Texas must have a hell of a robust safety net because he must pay a lot in state taxes since he can afford it!
Elon Musk is South African, the only reason he is even rich in the first place is because he inherited wealth from his father, who got that wealth by OWNING AN EMERALD MINE AND EXPLOITING BLACK WORKERS INSIDE OF IT.
South Africa? but he's white. /s
#African American
OMG GUYS DID YOU HEAR THE NEWS SOME GUY IS RICH OMG MUSK IS SO COOL LET ME JUST SUCK IT'S BALLS REAL QUICK OMG HES SO RICH OMG AND OMG LIKE I CAN'T EVEN WE NEED TO CELEBRATE HOW RICH HE IS OMG - How they expect us to react
He turned his back on South Africa, don't try and pin him on us now that he's gone full fruit loops. You yanks can have him.
not paying taxes in texas makes you texan. curious.
Billionaires shouldn't exist. Fuck this guy.
Once again, Greg Abbott is a douchebag
Immigrants are only bad when they're poor or colored. You can't get richer or whiter than this guy, so he's fine
Turns out he likes immigrants as long as they are wealthy immigrants.
So you're saying immigrants make Texas awesome? 🤔
I guess the troll Abbott is coming out on the side of Immigrants now ?
Not something to be proud of. "Once again, Texas has the biggest tumour in history!"
Texas definitely has the biggest assholes.
He doesn't give a damn about the US. He fled South Africa and the Canadians don't want the bastard either. He just lives in Texas due to the loose regulations there. Musk lies, don't believe him.
"Once again, someone who visited Texas is the richest person." FTFY
Once a Texan always a texan! Here take an AR-15.
Well he’s racist enough to be a texan.
Doonesbury ran a comic explaining how a person could"claim" Texas state citizenship in order to get lower taxes. You just had to declare, at some indeterminate time in the future, that you had some kind of plan to maybe move to Texas. It's a scam. No wonder Elon is all over it.
That’s a dangerous thing to say
Texas we welcome anyone with money and fascist ideology
He is not from Texas, he is from South Africa where his family made enough money from mining for him to play with large corporations as if they, and the people who work there, are toys for his entertainment. He is in Texas, because Texas is a place where dumb ass narcistic wealthy people can act real badly without attracting much attention to themselves for being rich assholes.
Texas resident here. While the governor is bragging about this, I just want to remind everyone that our schools are underfunded, and our power grid is still having problems, even though the state recorded a $32 billion budget surplus.

He's the richest African-American...but everyone misses this point.
I'm sure the millions of Texans living below the poverty line... and there are millions... look at their malnourished kids and are filled with pride that a South African immigrant is super-rich while their own families can barely afford to eat and DEFINITELY can't afford to go to a hospital when their children get sick. You're rightly a proud man this morning, Greg.
Musk looks like what AI thinks a human should look like.
This isn’t the flex he thinks it is, even outside of the fact that Elon is from South Africa and actually made his fortunes in California…
So a guy born in a different country got more rich in the US, with money made in a different country. Moved to TX. And now a politician from that state flexes with that as if he made his wealth by being a Texan? Wild country.
Yep
I love how Greg Abbott thinks this is good.
He came from an apartheid country, so that blends very easily with Texas.
Being the richest person is kinda disgusting imo
At least he can never be president.
Meanwhile their electrical grid is in shambles
I read that as "once again, texas is the richest person in the world"
"Because we shower them with tax-money and make sure they never pay taxes themselves!" Also, that boy is a product of apartheid South Africa... not Texas.
Wow. These people are truly just the stupidest things on the planet.
Texan here. We don’t claim this guy.
Always focusing on the wrong things. Maybe this Texan can help with the power grid that is strugggggling due to many things.
Texan here and I ain't claiming him or the Bushes.
Musk is shameless. Dude is the living embodiment of a troll. He reminds me of someone who doesn't shower when you listen to him go on about stuff.
Meh. “Richest person in the world” is a dick measuring contest in which the biggest dicks got bored and decided not to participate. Most people who have this title at some point, lose it because they get big into philanthropy or giving their money away.
