Here, have a badge for a well thought out answer and for all of the great stuff happening in your life. I tell you what, having a little girl is an absolute blast, I'm happy for you. Congratulations! -Speaking of costs.... :)

I would agree that Musk seems like the type that would be willing to personally finance as much as he could in order to achieve something of this magnitude. That said, he has consistently been able to make pretty shrewd business decisions and perhaps some of the tech/patents that could come out of this endeavor would be valuable enough to justify the costs?

I think there's a lot of "If anyone can, Musk can" sentiment out there for good reason.
