Billionaire Elon Musk, the richest person in the world, is almost halfway to become the first trillionaire on the planet, the Forbes magazine reported on Wednesday.
The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX became the first person to reach a net value of $ 500 billion, briefly, because the actions of his electric vehicle company rebounded from his clumsy passage in politics, in the middle of other gains.
The 54 -year -old net value reached $ 500.1 billion on Wednesday before going up to $ 499.1 billion, the “billionaire” of the publication reported.
Classified after him, Oracle CEO, Larry Ellison, with a net value of $ 350.7 billion, followed by the meta-PDG Mark Zuckerberg with a net value of $ 245.8 billion on the Forbes list.
After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania and abandoned from Stanford University, Musk bilated his first million when he sold an online publication software company to the American computer manufacturer for more than $ 300 million in 1999.
His next company finally merged with Paypal, and after leaving this company, the technological entrepreneur of South African origin founded Space Rocket Company SpaceX in 2002 and became president of the Tesla electric automaker in 2004.
