Tesla’s chief and billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk surpassed Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos to become the world’s richest man, prompting a variety of reactions online. Musk, who is a major share holder in the electric car company Tesla, benefitted from its surging share price over the last year, news agency Reuters reported.
As per Bloomberg’s Billionaires Index, a ranking of the world’s 500 wealthiest people, Musk is worth $194.8 billion, or $9.5 billion more than Bezos.
While many on twitter congratulated Musk for the achievement, others hoped he would put the money to good use. Take a look at some of the reactions here:
