Elon Musk Approaches Becoming the Richest Person in History
November 10, 2025
Elon Musk is on the brink of becoming the richest person in history, surpassing well-known historical figures. Despite challenges and a controversial public image, his wealth is continuously increasing, recently confirmed by a $1 trillion compensation package from Tesla shareholders. Musk currently holds 1.61% of the US GDP, a higher percentage than Rockefeller's at the time. If this trend continues, within five years, his wealth may exceed $1 trillion. Only powerful politicians and military leaders in history, like Julius Caesar, had a larger share of global wealth.
