Elon Musk

The name Elon Musk doesn’t need any introduction. Now he has surpassed $300 billion worth. It makes him the first person on the planet to reach that milestone. His net worth is $302 billion after a jump in Tesla shares on Thursday.

Elon Musk is the CEO of Tesla, the world’s most valued car company that recently crossed the $1 Trillion market cap. During the pandemic, when people were struggling to retain their wealth and job, Elon Musk earned well. His net worth was just $35 billion in March 2020. Then he saw exponential growth due to the rise in Tesla share prices.
