Since Elon Musk started the Tesla and SpaceX projects, his name has often been the focus of attention through innovations brought from the introduction of the latest electric car models to the launch of rockets into space.
Being the CEO of this company also indirectly makes Elon Musk succeed in being in the richest group of people in the world. Although sometimes there are mistakes from his unique style, the innovations he brings successfully convince investors of the company he leads.
Most recently, an increase in Tesla’s share of 11% while recording the highest share value of Tesla managed to increase Elon Musk’s fortune by around $ 7.8 billion (~ RM32.62 billion) thus making him the fourth richest man in the world behind Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg.
Reportedly, Elon Musk also managed to become the second man in the world with the most revenue this year while Jeff Bezos emerged in first place with a turnover of $ 73 billion ( ~ RM305.32 billion) so far.
Besides, some entrepreneurs in the field of technology such as Mark Zuckerberg also managed to reap high profits this year. The presence of the COVID-19 epidemic this year has significantly changed the habits and work habits of the people as well as made the public more inclined to surf social media and shop online which indirectly benefits those in the industry.
