Elon Musk is the new undisputed richest person of the world. Tesla shares have been rising since 2020 and if there’s one man who has gained more than anyone, it’s Elon Musk.
Just recently, he became the richest person in the world when tesla shares gained 4.8% and thus he was ahead from Jeff Bezos by $1.5 billion. It looks like he isn’t in a mood to stop anytime soon as his net worth has crossed $200 billion. He’s only the 2nd person to do so after Jeff Bezos. Following is a screenshot of the top 5 richest people in the world.
According to Bloomberg Billionaire Index, his net worth is approximately $209 billion which now makes him the richest person in modern history. But now the question arises until when we will remain in this position as other auto manufacturers are also stepping in with EVs.
If more and more car companies launch their EV, then Tesla could take a hit and so will Elon Musk’s net worth. But the interesting part of this story is that, he isn’t interested in any materialistic possessions. Recently, he sold all of his 3 homes for a combined $40.9 million and moved to Texas.
He wants to lead a simple life where he has enough to live life and is working on his dream of making this planet a better place to live. Or I should say making this universe a better place to live as Mars is altogether a different planet.
