Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has once again captured global attention after doubling his fortune and maintaining his position as the richest person on the planet. According to the annual ranking by Forbes, the wealth of the founder of Tesla and SpaceX increased from around $342 billion to more than $839 billion in just one year.
