Yeah -- but what are the chances SpaceX would exist if Musk hadn't personally invested the first $100m?
And Tesla might have been cheaper at first, but Musk led the A round and participated in every funding until the F round (!).
Without a deep pocketed founder willing to absorb years of losses, what are the chances Tesla ever makes it to market? Even so they nearly died before they shipped the roadster.
