Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s personal net worth rose to US$185 billion, surpassing Amazon CEO Bezos to become the world’s richest man.
Musk is worth about 27 billion U.S. dollars at the beginning of 2020, barely among the 50 richest people.
Tesla’s stock price is like riding on a rocket. It has increased by more than 9 times in the past year, and his generous compensation package has increased his net worth by more than 150 billion US dollars.
At the same time, Amazon’s stock price is still relatively sluggish due to the possibility of increased supervision in Washington.
