Other than maybe PayPal, Musk has had no "right ideas at the right time".

What he's had is daddy South African blood emerald money combined with his PayPal money and used that to buy into already existing companies and get himself listed as a "founder", i.e. SpaceX and Tesla.

Hey, actually that sounds like Musk's Twitter certification strategy. Spend some money get the "Founder" label. Spend some money get "Twitter Certification".

It comes down to that Elon's big idea is just spending money.

Money he never earned.

It was either gifted or gained from investors.

Now he's simply pissing away other people's money.
