World richest men: Musk overtakes Zuckerberg

Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, CEO, Tesl TSLAa, Elon Musk, has overtaken his Facebook counterpart, Mark Zuckerberg to become the world’s fourth-richest person, according to Forbes.

The billionaire Musk’s net worth pushed up by $8.3 billion, to $105.4 billion on Wednesday, making him the fourth-richest person in the world.

This means he now leaves Zuckerberg, who has a net worth of $100.6 billion behind.

The electric car maker’s fortune progressed at an astonishing rate in 2020, with Tesla’s stock up more than 460% this year.

And that has massively boosted his net worth, which has risen by nearly $76 billion since Forbes finalized its World’s Billionaires list on March 18, 2020

Then, in March, Musk had a net worth of $24.6 billion.
