Bill Gates has a "competitor" and who could be other than Elon Musk?
The fortune of the head of Tesla has increased to $ 127.9 billion, after the record increase in the value of shares in his electric cars. Such data were announced by Bloomberg Billionaires, the agency which deals with the performance of the 500 richest people in the world. Now, Musk is in line with Bill Gates!
In fact, for about two hours Musk was above Bill Gates in the millionaires index, where the wealth of the head of Microsoft was estimated at $ 127.7 billion. Some time later, the data put the two at $ 128 billion each.
Musk's fortune is directly linked to the fate of Tesla, in which he reportedly owns 20% of the shares. Despite the frightening wealth figures, in the first place as the richest man in the world continues to remain the head of Amazon, Jeff Bezos with $ 182 billion.
In addition to Tesla, Musk also oversees the SpaceX space group, which recently launched NASA's mission to the International Space Station.
