Rumors that Musk plans to build his own private airport in central Texas were quashed by Musk.
He said it was not true at the Texas outlet.
He wrote that it would be silly to build another private airport as the existing commercial airport needs another runway.
There was a rumor that a billionaire was going to build an exclusive runway in Bastrop, Texas, a small town that is about 40 minutes east of Austin.
We shouldn't take everything we hear about the richest man in the world at face value according to Musk.
Texas has been a home base for Musk for both personal and professional reasons. The billionaire and his companies decided to leave California in 2020 due to a number of reasons.
Most of his operations are located in or around Austin, with more Musk-owned ventures spotted throughout the state.
He's not the only famous person who's been to the town. Major tech organizations, including Amazon and Oracle, have established huge presences in the booming Southern city, which has attracted some notable names, including Peter Thiel, who co-foundedPayPal with Musk.
He may be right about the fact that Austin is growing quickly.
Musk probably has too much on his plate to worry about building a new airport.
It wasn't a big deal because celebrities love their private flights.
Musk has a space station that burns at Moscow.
