Elon Musk has surpassed Bill Gates to become world’s second richest man as Tesla’s share price continues to surge. Tesla stock value has risen post announcement that it would join S&P 500 index, and is currently valued at $521.49 a share. Musk worth stands over $128bn for 20% stake in company which have risen over 675% since 25 November last year, when they were valued at $67.27 each.
Bill is giving his money away so he should be getting poorer if not then he is not giving it away fast enough.
All hail Elon Musk! Future god emperor of Mars. Side note: I love that the 1st and 2nd richest men on Earth both have space companies but thats not where most of their money comes from.
Maybe he should use some of that to help the small businesses covid has destroyed. It's apparently a big enough deal to tweet about, but not do anything himself to help when he's got the means. Use to think the guy was kinda cool, now he's showing who he really is like the rest of the 1% destroying the world to make themselves richer.
Oh damn I thought you were going to say Bill gates was dead and there's you building my hopes up
Look at all these racist Pieces of Shit comparing a privileged white man like Bill Gates to an African man like Elon Musk. Sure, Gates is technically richer but he isn't African.
Who's number 1? Besos?
So now Musk is in charge of the global mind-control-vaccine ring of pizza parlor peodophiles?
First and foremost, this sounds like a bubble Scary! Secondly, that gizmodo article! Yikes. Good for him.
Great to hear. When Elon is legitimately working to colonize the Moon and beyond, this is only going to help.
I hope I have enough money today to have either a small lunch and little dinner or.......?
Good. Soon to be the most powerful man to have ever lived.
Nauseating.
Damn I should have bought some shares
Technically bill is still more powerful and has more infouence
Guess musk will have to take over developing vaccines and giving medical advice and bill gates will have to retire from the vaccine business since he is no longer second richest. Cause that is what qualifies you to be giving medical advice and vaccines like bill gates has been.
These people should be in a psychiatric hospital.
In your face Gates! Look out Bezos, you’re next!
Thank God, a rich person worth looking up to
I bet he's really excited.
Why do people not realize this isnt his actual wealth, he actually doesnt have 128 billion in the bank. This wealth is based on the stock price of tesla. If this price fall, his wealth falls.
