Trillionaire Musk Is Three Times Richer Than Closest Rival

Über dieses Video

In a post on the social media platform he owns, Elon Musk recently lamented, “Whoever said ‘money can’t buy happiness’ really knew what they were talking about.” Now the world’s richest person can put that maxim to an even bigger test as he adds a new title: world’s first trillionaire. Gautam Mukunda joined David Gura and Christina Ruffini on Bloomberg This Weekend to discuss how shares of SpaceX rose 19% Friday to $160.95 each in their first day of trading, vaulting the value of the rocket and AI company Musk founded to $2.2 trillion. His fortune now stands at the once-unimaginable figure of $1.1 trillion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. That’s more than three times that of the world’s second-richest person, Google co-founder Larry Page.
