Part 4/9:
Determined to continue his exploration, Musk proceeded to Pacific First Savings, a modest bank that presented a stark contrast to Glendale Bank. Entering its premises filled with warm sunlight and laughter, he found a welcoming atmosphere. The teller, Rosa, exuded genuine kindness and understanding, treating him as an equal. When Musk explained his desire to open a modest account, Rosa not only waived the minimum deposit requirement but also offered him a cup of water to ease the heat of the day. This encounter marked a pivotal moment for Musk; he felt seen as a human being rather than a mere statistic or stereotype.
