Elon Musk is the richest man in the world. He became the first person with a net worth of more than $600 billion. <\/p>\n<p>In the last 24 hours, Musk&#8217;s net worth has increased by $ 167 billion. This sudden increase in Musk&#8217;s net worth is due to the rising prices of his rocket-building company SpaceX. As a result, his wealth surpasses all other billionaires in the world. <\/p>\n<p>According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Elon Musk&#8217;s net worth is about $ 638 billion. With this wealth, he surpasses Larry Page, the second richest man in the world, by more than $ 373 billion. <\/p>\n<p>Musk&#8217;s wealth growth has widened the gap at the top of the rich list. Most of the richest people on this list are involved in the tech sector. <\/p>\n<p>Elon Musk&#8217;s primary income comes from his companies Tesla, SpaceX, XAI, and others. A significant portion of his net worth comes from Tesla and SpaceX. He owns about 13 percent of Tesla and 42 percent of SpaceX. <\/p>\n<p>The recent increase in SpaceX&#8217;s value has been a major factor in Elon Musk&#8217;s wealth growth.
