• People are trying to raise $1,000 on GoFundMe to buy Tesla CEO Elon Musk a new couch.
• The campaign started after Musk said in an interview he'd been sleeping on a couch at his Tesla factory in Fremont, California.
• The couch looks very uncomfortable, and Musk even admitted he sometimes just sleeps on the floor instead.

Dozens of people are raising money to buy Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla, a new couch.

More than 60 people have donated to a GoFundMe campaign to buy Musk a new couch after he showed off his current - and very uncomfortable-looking - sleeping arrangement in an interview with "CBS This Morning."

Musk said he has been sleeping on a couch in a conference room at his Fremont, California, Tesla factory as the company goes through what he called "production hell" for the company's Model 3 sedan.

The couch is actually so narrow that Musk said he sometimes just resorts to sleeping on the floor.

After seeing the video, a California man named Ben Sullins started the GoFundMe campaign, which he titled "Buy Elon Musk a Couch." As of Tuesday morning, the campaign had already raised $967 toward its $1,000 goal.

"Elon Musk is transforming our world to run on sustainable energy and use sustainable forms of transportation," Sullins wrote. "Lately, he's been sleeping at the Fremont factory in an effort to improve Model 3 production. This is the couch he is sleeping on. As a community, we cannot let this stand. Let's band together to buy Elon a new couch to sleep on!"

Sullins wrote on the campaign page that he hopes to get Musk's attention on Twitter. If Musk does not accept the donation, the money will be donated to a charity.

Musk is the CEO of both Tesla and SpaceX and is currently worth $20.1 billion. He owns more than $70 million worth of residential property in the Bel-Air neighborhood of Los Angeles.
