Why don't you trust him? Personally, I kind of idolize him... he's 40 and he owns 3 companies, one of which is a freaking rocket company! And, all three companies he owns are cutting edge: electric vehicles, renewable energy, and space travel. (oh and he also started that little PayPal thing which he sold for a ton of money when he was in his twenties)

Furthermore, the very first test flight of the Falcon 9 rocket went flawlessly and they've been working with NASA to make sure all their software for this launch is going to work like it should. I have a high degree of faith in Space X's ability as a company, and I'm looking forward to seeing how they revolutionize the new Space Industry.
