Elon Musk trolls Jeff Bezos as he widens his lead as the richest person on Earth
amp.cnn.com
Elon Musk's personal wealth is now $222 billion, widening his gap as the richest person in the world according to Bloomberg's Billionaires Index. Musk's personal wealth skyrocketed an extra $10.6 billion after a secondary share sale by investors, announced last week, valued the space company over $100 billion, CNBC reported.

Okay, why is Musk worth so much? Bezos I can understand given how huge Amazon is? But what has Musk done that’s anywhere close to that in scale?

    Essentially the S&P andNasdaq are tied to Tesla price which is tied to the value of zero-emissions credits, right? So once “real” car companies start increasing production of zero-emissions vehicles (the Chevy Volt, electric F150 etc.) the price of the credits is going to tank, along with Elon’s wealth and the stock market as we know it.
