Jeff Bezos overtakes Elon Musk as world’s richest person

on

Jeff Bezos reclaims his position from Elon Musk as world’s richest person.


Musk reign as the world richest person lasted for 6 weeks, after he was announced in January, dethroning Jeff.

However, the Amazon CEO reclaims his title as Musk lost about $4.5 billion on Tuesday after Tesla (TSLA) shares fell 2.4%. Bezos’ net worth also fell as the broader stock market lost a bit of ground — but his loss wasn’t as extreme, only taking a hit of about $372 million.

The index currently says Bezos is worth $191 billion compared to Musk’s $190 billion.

According to Forbes, “Bezos is just $200 million richer than number two richest Musk, who is worth $184.7 billion.

While Jeff and Musk compete for the title, Bill Gates remains at the world’s third-richest person with $137 billion of worth.
