Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has made history. Following a recent ruling by the Delaware Supreme Court, his net worth has reached $749 billion, making him the first person in the world whose wealth has crossed $700 billion (approximately 62 lakh crore rupees).
This surge is primarily due to the reinstatement of his 2018 Tesla compensation package, which had previously been struck down by a lower court. The current value of this package is around $139 billion. The court stated that the previous decision was "unfair and disproportionate."
Earlier this month, SpaceX's valuation reaching $800 billion had already pushed Musk's net worth past $600 billion. According to Forbes and Bloomberg, Musk is now roughly $500 billion ahead of the second-richest person (Google co-founder Larry Page).

The news is going viral on social media, where an old clip is back in the spotlight. In it, Musk quotes the film The Princess Bride (1987), saying: "Offer me money... Offer me power... I don't care." This clip highlights his commitment to free speech and independent opinions.
Experts believe that with Tesla's robotics and AI plans, Musk could soon become the world's first trillionaire.
