Profitability is never a constraint for Elon companies. He has always been able to be able to extract money from the middle east, government, banks, retail investors (or these same parties through his other companies) whenever they need more.
His net worth is orders of magnitude bigger than the cumulative profits his companies have ever produced (even if you only count the profitable quarters)
It's really easy to do this actually. You just create cars that drive themselves and rockets that land themselves and people start throwing money at you.
When can I get a Tesla that drives itself? About six months?
