Elon Musk’s net worth hit an eye-watering $447 billion this week, which feels impossible to wrap your head around.
In just one day, Musk’s fortune jumped a record-breaking $62.8 billion, fueled by Tesla’s soaring stock prices.
Since Trump’s 2024 election victory, Musk’s wealth has surged by 77%, adding an astounding $218 billion this year alone.
TikToker Compares Musk’s Wealth With Rice
To make sense of these mind-boggling numbers, a TikTok user, @realestatebulldog, broke them down using grains of rice.
According to Federal Reserve data, each grain represents about $200,000, the median net worth in America.
For most Americans, that’s a single grain—if they’re lucky.
The TikToker builds increasingly large piles of rice to show the wealth disparity: a CEO’s net worth, Donald Trump’s $6.3 billion, and finally Musk’s massive rice mountain.
“This is what actual wealth disparity looks like,” he says, as viewers are left stunned.
