exhibited an early interest in technology and entrepreneurship. At the age of 12, he created and sold a video game called\u00a0<strong>Blastar<\/strong>, setting the stage for his future endeavors. However, during his college years at the University of Pretoria, Musk faced financial challenges. He had to find ways to stretch his limited budget, which led him to a diet consisting primarily of inexpensive foods like\u00a0<strong>oranges<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>hot dogs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-7\"><\/div>\n<h3><span id=\"Living_on_1_a_Day\" class=\"ez-toc-section\"><\/span>Living on\u00a0<strong>$1 a Day<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Musk\u2019s story of living on just\u00a0<strong>$1 a day<\/strong>\u00a0is both shocking and revealing. He would buy bulk quantities of\u00a0<strong>oranges<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>hot dogs<\/strong>, which provided him with the necessary calories and nutrients to get by. This frugality not only taught him the value of money but also instilled a strong work ethic.
