As of January 30, 2024, Elon Musk, CEO of X (formerly Twitter), has officially claimed the top spot as the richest person, according to the Bloomberg Billionaire’s Index. What stands out is the revelation that the combined net worth of Indian billionaires Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani falls short of Elon Musk’s total wealth.
Mukesh Ambani, the 11th-ranked billionaire on the Bloomberg Billionaire’s Index, possesses a net worth of $108 billion as of January 30. Meanwhile, Gautam Adani, standing at 14th place on the index, holds a net worth of $95.9 billion.
In contrast, Elon Musk, renowned for his roles at SpaceX, Tesla, X Corp., the Boring Company, and other ventures, boasts an impressive net worth of $204 billion.
The Bloomberg Billionaire’s Index underscores Elon Musk’s continued dominance as the wealthiest individual globally, with a net worth that equals the combined wealth of both Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani.
Despite briefly losing the title to Bernard Arnault, Chairman and CEO of LVMH, in late January, Elon Musk retains his standing as the richest person on Earth, with an estimated net worth of $232 billion according to Bloomberg and $254 billion according to Forbes.
Mukesh Ambani’s wealth has seen a recent uptick, reaching $101.8 billion, while Gautam Adani, who briefly surpassed Ambani in January, now holds the 12th position on the Bloomberg Billionaire’s Index.
In a notable update, Elon Musk shared on January 30 that the first human patient has successfully received an implant from Neuralink, his brain-chip startup, and is reportedly recovering well.
