Grimes – Elon Musk’s ex-girlfriend – revealed that she would not have been able to buy a house without Musk’s help. Grimes feels bitter because she is also a famous and successful artist.
Canadian singer – Grimes (34 years old) surprised everyone when she announced that she would not have been able to buy a house without the financial support of her ex-boyfriend – billionaire Elon Musk. Grimes has two children with billionaire Elon Musk. Currently, the two are taking care of their children together.

This week, Grimes took to social media to ask her fans to speak up about the problem of constantly rising house prices in the state of Texas (USA), which makes home ownership out of reach for many individuals.

As soon as Grimes expressed her personal views on the rising housing prices that make it difficult for many people to own a home, many netizens criticized the singer for saying that she was expressing her thoughts on an issue that actually had no impact on her life in reality.

In her post about the rising housing prices, Grimes wrote: “Please join me in expressing my desire to reduce housing prices in Austin, Texas, USA. Currently, many effective measures have been taken by the authorities to overcome this situation, but we also need to speak up to express the views of the community, so that the efforts of the authorities receive attention and support from the voices of the people”.

Immediately, there were comments expressing ill will towards Grimes’s appeal, for example, a netizen commented: “Grimes, you already have a house, your opinion on the issue of rising house prices is really not convincing”.

Immediately, the female singer revealed a piece of information: “First of all, I need to let you know that I also do not have enough money to buy a house in this city if I do not receive financial support from the father of my children, this is hard to believe because in fact, in the assessment of many people, I am also a relatively successful singer, I am widely known.

Second, the opinion I gave is not my own, I have just accepted to support a number of experts and policy makers on the issue of housing, I made this appeal based on their advice”.

Grimes’ latest sharing about Elon Musk supporting her to buy a house has received a lot of attention, because in the past, what Grimes revealed about Elon Musk always showed the public a billionaire who lived like a… poor person with an incredibly frugal spending style.

The “poor” life of the richest person in the world through the story of his girlfriend

Billionaire Elon Musk is currently considered the richest person in the world with a fortune of more than 250 billion USD. However, life with the richest person in the world is not as glamorous as most of us imagine.

Singer Grimes once revealed in an interview that billionaire Elon Musk had periods of “living below the poverty line”, there were times when his house had no other food than… peanut butter.

Grimes shared that Elon Musk does not build a lavish personal life for himself because he constantly has to invest money in projects, his own enjoyment is not what this billionaire cares about.

In an interview with Vanity Fair magazine earlier this year, Grimes said that although he is considered the richest man in the world, there are times when Elon Musk has “no income” and “no cash”. In addition, in daily life, Elon Musk often “says things that people around him cannot understand”, many people will even think he is “silly, stupid”.

However, Grimes does not feel that these things are annoying or make her feel disappointed, because she knows that her boyfriend is pursuing big plans and dreams.

The 34-year-old singer admits that the projects her boyfriend is pursuing are at an unusual level: “The space projects he is pursuing are very difficult, challenging, and do not generate profits for him at the moment, but will have immeasurable benefits in the long run.

However, those projects are expensive and have many risks and dangers. People often think that Elon Musk must have a lot of money because he is the richest billionaire in the world, but in fact he always puts all his money into his projects. Therefore, he does not live like a billionaire. Sometimes, he even lives below the poverty line.

I myself sometimes have difficulty adapting to his life, sometimes I have to exclaim: Can we move out of this very unsafe house? It is a small house that he is renting, the value of the house is only about 40,000 USD.

Neighbors could take pictures and record us very easily, there were no special security measures for the house, there was not much food in the house, at one point, the only food I had was peanut butter to eat for 8 consecutive days.”

Elon Musk previously announced that he would sell all of his assets. Indeed, the billionaire did just that last year. He sold all of his real estate, worth a total of $144 million.

Grimes also revealed that Elon Musk has eccentric, bizarre aspects: “We often admire geniuses, billionaires, but many people don’t understand that the reason a person becomes extraordinary is because they have an unusual, even abnormal way of living and behaving. Extraordinary people don’t think and act according to conventional standards.”

Elon especially likes everything around him to be neat and tidy. Grimes said that Elon lives very simply and frugally because he doesn’t have much money to spend on daily life. At one point, she suggested that he buy a new mattress because the one they were using was quite old, but he decided… not to buy it.
