Elon Musk
Musk earned the top spot on the Forbes World Billionaires list last year with a net worth of $216bn however, he is now in second place behind Bernard Arnault, the chairman of French luxury goods giant LVMZ, which owns brands such as Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior and Tiffany & Co.
Reports have said that Arnault was able to overthrow Musk in the annual list after his net worth grew more than $50bn to $211bn, as Musk’s net worth slumped to $180bn, $39bn less than it was last year, thanks to the purchase of Twitter which was funded by Tesla shares.
However, Musk’s SpaceX valuation increased from $13bn to $140bn in just the past year.
WOW.
