Elon Musk's net worth

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Elon Musk’s head isn’t in the clouds. No, his dreams reach far beyond that to the stars that shine above us, to the uninhabitable planets in our solar system.

As of April 24, Elon Musk was worth a staggering $269.7 billion, according to Forbes’ real-time billionaire's rankings.
