1. Elon Musk (Richest People in the World):

Elon Musk, co-founder and head designer of SpaceX, Tesla, The Boring Company, and Neuralink, now tops the world’s richest people, beating Jeff Bezos and other billionaires.

In 2020, he had a net worth of about $29 billion, which was not enough to figure in the list of the top 10 richest people in the world.

But in the year 2021, Elon Musk’s total wealth rose to $195 billion, nearly 550% more than in previous years, making him the richest person at the moment.

The reason behind this immense growth is the surging Tesla stock. But the question is, will Elon Musk continue to rank 1 or could his ranking fall in the future?

Well, it depends on the performance of the stocks. If it continues to perform well, his net worth may increase even further. Conversely, if the stock goes down, he may lose the first position.

2. Jeff Bezos:

Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos have lost the first place among the world’s richest people. In 2020, he had achieved the first position beating Bill Gates.

But in 2021, his rankings dropped to second position due to the last change of -$4.24 billion. He is currently having a total net worth of $185 billion according to the Bloomberg reports.

Bernard Arnault, CEO, and chairman of LVMH is currently the 4th richest person and one of the centi-billionaires in the world. He holds a net worth of $116 billion this year.
