New York, December 12: Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, SpaceX, and several other ventures, has solidified his position as the world’s richest person, with his net worth surpassing $400 billion. This remarkable feat further widens the wealth gap between Musk and other billionaire tech moguls, including Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg.
According to the latest figures, Musk’s wealth surge has been driven by the rising stock value of Tesla, which continues to dominate the electric vehicle market, along with significant advancements at SpaceX and his recent forays into artificial intelligence and other cutting-edge industries. His wealth now places him far ahead of Jeff Bezos, who holds the second position, and Mark Zuckerberg, who ranks further down the list.
Musk’s rapid financial growth has sparked discussions about wealth inequality and the concentration of power among a select group of individuals. Despite criticism, Musk remains a polarizing figure, celebrated for his innovative ventures and questioned for his ambitious—and sometimes controversial—business strategies.
