Elon Musk has surpassed $500 billion: a world record net worth
Elon Musk sets a new record in the global billionaire rankings. According to Forbes, the entrepreneur is the first person in history to exceed a net worth of $500 billion, thanks to the rebound in Tesla shares and the increase in the valuations of his other companies, from SpaceX to xAI.
Elon Musk’s net worth exceeds $500 billion: a leap from last year
The new milestone comes less than a year after Musk surpassed $400 billion. Yesterday, his fortune briefly touched $500 billion before stabilising at $499.1 billion.
The richest man in the world
With this result, Elon Musk consolidates his position as the richest person on the planet, further distancing himself from other global super-billionaires and redefining international finance records.
