After becoming tha richest person in tha world Elon Musk 'strange reaction'.
The outspoken entrepreneur of inc. tesla and spacex, Elon Musk is now the world's richest man - a feat he finds himself "strange".
Elon Musk overtook Jeff Bezos on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, a ranking of the 500 richest people in the world, thanks to a 4.8% rally in the electric carmaker's share price on Thursday. But even when his net worth was $ 188.5 billion, Musk was still anxious to get back to work.
On Thursday, a Twitter account named 'Tesla Owners of Silicon Valley' shared the news of the 49-year-old business magnate becoming the world's richest person and reacted to Mr. Musk himself.
According to a Bloomberg report, in the past year, Elon Musk's total assets have exceeded $ 150 billion, possibly the fastest bout of wealth creation in history. A pinch tweet on his Twitter profile described what he wanted to do with the money.
"About half of my money is to solve problems on Earth and other half of money is to help establish a self-sufficient city on Mars to ensure the continuity of life (of all species) when Earth is like dinosaurs or WW3 The meteor collides and we destroy ourselves, ”Elon Musk says in a 2018 tweet.
After defeating Jeff Bezos as the world's wealthiest, Mr. Musk - who has spoken of sending humans to Mars in the past - reiterated his pledge.
When a Twitter account named Mars asked him, "When is our first date? How long have you been teasing," he replied, "playing a long game."
Elon Musk says he has little interest in material things and Tesla and SpaceX have some assets outside of their bets. In an interview last month, he said he wanted to use his money to build a city on Mars.
"I want to be able to contribute as much as possible to the city on Mars," Elon Musk said. "It means a lot of capital."
