Elon Musk, the entrepreneur behind Tesla and SpaceX, has reached a milestone no one else has because his personal fortune now tops $600 billion, according to Forbes. It’s a staggering number, but behind it lies years of vision, risk-taking, and relentless work.
Much of Musk’s wealth comes from SpaceX, his private space exploration company, which is preparing for a public listing in the next few years. With a potential valuation of $800 billion, SpaceX could make Musk even richer, highlighting how a single ambitious idea can reshape not just industries, but fortunes. Musk owns about 42 percent of the company, showing how deeply his personal journey is tied to his ventures.
Tesla, his electric car company, also plays a big role. Musk holds roughly 12 percent of the company, whose shares have surged recently. Beyond Tesla and SpaceX, his work in AI with xAI and the social platform X reflects his constant drive to innovate.
Reaching $600 billion puts Musk far ahead of other billionaires and continues a trajectory that saw him cross $500 billion earlier this year. While most of his wealth is tied to company shares rather than cash, it’s a reminder that bold ideas, persistence, and thinking beyond limits can lead to extraordinary results.
