    For PayPal he was actually fired, but still had a lot of shares. Musk was fired when the company he was CEO of (x.com), merged with Confinity. PayPal was a service of Confinity. Musk kept pushing his X concept, whilst the rest of the company wanted to go PayPal. Musk got pushed out over this and some other conflicts. Later PayPal made it big and the shares made Musk a bunch of money.

    So for PayPal Musk had zero to do with it’s success.
