Elon Musk is about to become the world’s first trillionaire but not thanks to Tesla?

Tram Ho

Bloomberg reports, Elon Musk is currently the richest person on the planet thanks to Tesla. However, with SpaceX, Morgan Stanley experts say that this aerospace company can take him to a new level: Becoming a trillionaire.

SpaceX “is challenging all notions of what’s possible and possible timeframes in categories like rockets, new vehicle launches, and infrastructure support. SpaceX Espace Velocity… Who can catch them?”

SpaceX currently generates 17% of Elon Musk’s $241.4 billion fortune, according to Bloomberg statistics. However, this is the number when the company was valued at $100 billion earlier this month.

Expert Jonas – who thinks SpaceX is worth up to $ 200 billion, writes that he considers this company to be a multi-disciplinary company from aeronautical infrastructure, earth observation, space exploration and other industries. Their Starlink satellite business is the biggest contributor to this value.

Musk has previously been predicted to be the world’s first trillionaire, but that’s largely because Tesla’s stock is expected to continue to soar. Tesla stock has been heating up since last year, helping Musk’s fortune to skyrocket, and the trend has not stopped. On Monday alone, Tesla increased his fortune by $6.6 billion.

Musk now owns half of SpaceX.

Elon Musk is constantly rising in the ranking of world billionaires. The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX is currently not only the richest person in the world, but his wealth is also worth as much as the fortunes of billionaires Bill Gates and Warren Buffett combined.

Musk has added more than $60 billion of his own this year thanks to the strong performance of Tesla stock as well as the recent sale of shares in SpaceX, valuing the company at $100 billion. According to Bloomberg, the SpaceX deal added $11 billion to Musk’s net worth.

Bezos is currently the second richest person on earth with a net worth of $191 billion. Since surpassing Jeff Bezos as the world’s richest man, Elon Musk has more than once mocked the Amazon founder.

Accordingly, the Tesla CEO responded to a tweet by Bezos last week with a silver medal icon. The move comes at a time when the wealth gap between the two billionaires widened a lot last week as SpaceX’s value surged. That helps Elon Musk’s fortune now reach $222 billion, while Jeff Bezos’s similar figure is $190.8 billion according to Bloomberg calculations.

The public sarcasm between Musk and Bezos comes as both billionaires are working to revolutionize the space industry.
