Yes I think he got lucky multiple times, because his failures are also quite significant. Remember hyperloop? Remember he got kicked out of PayPal? Remember boring company? Remember solar city?

If anything it just shows he has enough money that it’s okay when some of his extremely ambitious projects fail. A less wealthy person couldn’t even attempt any of what he does much less fail as often and as publicly as he has. Elizabeth Holmes went to prison, for example.
