Founder of Tesla Inc. and SpaceX Elon Musk took second place in the list of the richest people in the world, ahead of Microsoft founder Bill Gates. This was reported by the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
Over the past 12 months, Mask’s fortune has grown by about $ 100 billion, according to Bloomberg estimates.

Tesla was founded by Mask in 2003. Initially, the company specialized in the production of electric vehicles, but later also began to create energy-saving systems.
