This woman’s three children are all extremely wealthy and successful thanks in part to their mother’s education.

Known as the mother of the richest billionaire in the world at the moment Elon Musk, Mrs. Maye Musk (75 years old) also has 2 millionaire children who are also very successful in their chosen fields. Maye Musk has been a single mother since the age of 31, raising her children herself after many incidents. Currently, she is an international supermodel, nutritionist and global speaker who has published books.‏

The second son, Kimbal Musk, founded the Zip2 software company with his brother Elon Musk, then invested in technology companies very early. Kimbal Musk has opened many successful restaurant chains and founded Big Green, a non-profit organization that builds gardens at schools to teach students about nutrition, health and food knowledge. Elon Musk’s younger brother’s assets are estimated at about 700 million USD.‏

‏Maye Musk’s youngest child, Tosca Musk, made a certain mark in the filmmaking industry as a film director and producer. She co-founded Passionflix – an online television platform specializing in producing movies adapted from romantic novels with a similar operating method to Netflix. Saving Advice estimates Tosca Musk’s net worth at around $170 million.‏

‏”People often ask me how I raise such successful children. I answered that I taught my children about hard work and let them follow their interests,” Maye Musk said. ‏

Let your children help with chores from a young age

‏Mrs. Maye Musk has been helping with chores at her father’s clinic since she was 8 years old and was rewarded 5 cents per hour. “My parents viewed me and my sister as trustworthy adults, which influenced the way I raised my children. From an early age, my children helped me in my work at the nutrition consulting office. Tosca, Elon, Kimbal all completed their individual tasks very well,” Maye Musk shared.‏

At the age of 8, Tosca Musk’s youngest daughter was taken to the modeling school her mother was running to help her mother. Thanks to that, Tosca learned how to practice catwalks, choreograph runway shows and lead etiquette classes. It was from these opportunities that the Musk brothers all started their businesses very early, revealing their outstanding talents.‏

Don’t check homework, let your child be independent

‏Elon Musk’s mother said she does not treat her children like children or scold them, nor does she ever dictate what they should learn. So Maye Musk did not check the homework of the three Musk brothers because she thought it was the children’s responsibility. She lets them take responsibility for their future through the decisions they make. From choosing a university, applying for scholarships to student loans.

‏Mrs. Maye Musk once advised many parents who had problems with their diet when they were too stressed about their children. Parents have a headache when there are too many forms to fill out to get their children into the school they want. ‏

‏”My advice to them is to let your child handle college and job applications on their own. If they want to start a business and you think it’s a good idea, support them. Teach your children good manners, but let them decide what they want,” said Mrs. Maye Musk.‏

‏Do not let your children live in luxury

‏The 75-year-old supermodel discourages other parents from spoiling their children by giving them a life of luxury. Mrs. Maye Musk let her children live in minimal college conditions, lying on a mattress on the floor, sharing a room with six roommates or staying in an old house. This nutritionist found that the children were fine with their life as they were and only intervened to ensure their physical safety.‏

‏”If your children are not used to a luxurious lifestyle, they will still do well. You don’t need to intervene and let the children take care of themselves,” Elon Musk’s mother shared.
