Tesla and SpaceX boss Elon Musk traveled to Portugal this Friday, landing in a private jet at Tires Aeródrome, reportedly accompanied by his three-year-old son, according to the Observador newspaper.
The flight originated in Austin (Texas) and the reasons for this trip are unknown. Observador captured photographs of the aircraft on the runway and of a black Mercedes van where it says the businessman followed after leaving the private jet, “without allowing himself to be photographed”.
Elon Musk heads Tesla, private space company SpaceX, and social network X, formerly known as Twitter, among several other companies. He is currently the richest man in the world, according to Bloomberg's latest list, with an estimated fortune of $252 billion.

He is here for shopping. With 250 000 000 000 $ he can buy the hole country.

Evelin's comment offering death to Musk is disgusting and shouldn't even be allowed here, frankly.
Elon is the Einstein of our generation. He did things with space travel, things NASA said couldn't be done and probably have not done with nearly his efficiency, and made them happen. Hell, he took the Portuguese satellite up into space a few months back.
He's built the largest selling, by a large margin, EV on earth, crushing all the other American, the German and the Japanese, as well as others, in the process.
To hate this man is ridiculous and reeks of jealousy, ignorance and bias. Guessing after all he's done, Evelin, doesn't like his politics, so she'd like him dead.
Classless and embarrassing.

Perhaps a business meeting. Possible motives:
1. Lithium mining. Portugal has significant lithium reserves.
2. Possible launch sites for Space X. The Azores could be a good launch site for his space rockets.

What Elon Musk will do in Portugal?, Where you will not find any honest and sincere hardworking employees!!! Govt. regulations/ systems are not favouring business for foreign investors. Law enforcement authorities has no cooperation incase of any incident n if necessary help!!

The problem with wealth like Musks is that there is no problem, yet as commenters here show they believe a successful business creator takes something from them. Musk and others like him to not take from you. They create the things you love and want to pay for like iphones, satellite transport, starlink, tesla, and more. Why should they not be rewarded for developing things so many people love and want? The economic pie grows with these creations. It is not a zero sum game where your bread money goes to their bank accounts. You and only you can choose whether you send them money, unlike the thieves in government. Don't ruin a good thing but getting government to steal more from them too.

The problem with Elon Musk is that he shouldn't interfere with foreign countries and shouldn't be caught giving opinions in politics.
