And this isn't even right, 2 people founded Tesla the other 3 are investors....
Excuse me, but one of the conditions of Elon's investment was that they pretend he was a founder and refer to him as such!
It wasn't a condition of his initial investment, but rather of a lawsuit settlement five years later, in 2009 (six years after Eberhard and Tarpenning actually founded it).
