Major Celebrities And Their Financial Worth
Elon Musk | $79 BILLION
Elon Musk, the self-made billionaire, has recently resigned as Tesla’s chairman but continues to maintain his substantial wealth. Currently valued at $150 billion, he is ranked as the second wealthiest person globally by Forbes. Musk made his initial millions when he and his brother sold Zip2, a web software company. Following that, he established X.com, an online banking firm, which later merged with its competitor Confinity and transformed into PayPal Inc. After being sold to eBay, this move further increased Musk’s fortune.
Musk’s next venture, the aerospace manufacturer SpaceX, where he holds a 54% stake, promises to further augment his wealth. As of 2020, his net worth skyrocketed to $150 billion, fueled by the rising stock of Tesla and the global surge in electric vehicle sales.
