Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has reached a net worth milestone of over $300 billion for the first time in nearly three years, following Donald Trump's win in the U.S. presidential election. The billionaire’s wealth surged after Tesla shares soared by 28%, adding approximately $50 billion to Musk's net worth, now valued at $313.7 billion according to Bloomberg's Billionaires Index. The market's optimism stems from Musk's close relationship with President-elect Trump, which investors anticipate could benefit Musk’s companies, particularly Tesla and SpaceX.

In a surprising twist in Hollywood's wealth hierarchy, Tyler Perry has emerged as the world's richest actor, boasting a net worth of approximately $1.4 billion.

Former President Donald Trump experienced a remarkable financial upswing, with his net worth soaring to $6.5 billion, positioning him among the world's wealthiest 500 individuals on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
