Top 10 richest persons in the world: Elon Musk, at age 53, has regained his position as the world’s wealthiest individual for the fourth time in five years! Elon Musk’s net worth has crossed the $400 billion wealth threshold. His net worth experienced a remarkable increase of $189 billion or 82%, largely due to the ‘Trump effect’ on Tesla’s share value, said the report.

However, after January 15 2025, Musk’s fortune has decreased by approximately $100 billion, influenced by his Doge investments, political activities, and rising competition from Chinese manufacturers affecting Tesla’s market performance. Nevertheless, he maintains a substantial lead as the world’s richest person in 2025. (AP Photo)
