Elon Musk Is a Trillionaire Following SpaceX IPO
Summary: Elon Musk has officially become the world’s first trillionaire following the historic SpaceX IPO. Shares started at $135 and quickly climbed to $150. This massive wealth makes Musk richer than the poorest 46 percent of the world's population combined. While Musk celebrated by promising to take everyday people to Mars, experts warn that having one person hold this much wealth is a dark day for democracy and worsens income inequality.
