The ポルノ映画 長野 ホテル 究極fight to become the richest tech overlord is heating up.
Thanks to Tesla's stock price rise following a successful stock split that went live on Monday, Tesla CEO Elon Musk is now the third richest person in the world, according to Bloomberg's count.
Musk is now worth $115.4 billion. Astonishingly, his net worth grew by $87.8 billion just this year, as Tesla's stock price increased roughly fivefold.
This places Musk ahead of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who is now eating his hat in anger (we're joking, he's probably kite surfing on his private island with way too much sunscreen on his face) since he only has a paltry $110.8 billion. Weak.

The way Musk has been smashing through the ranks — after all, he jumped from fifth to fourth richest just two weeks ago — it wouldn't be very surprising if he caught up with Gates fairly quickly.
Tesla stock price ended at $498.3 on Monday, in its first day of trading after the five-for-one stock split, a 12.5 percent increase. TSLA is trading at $532.8 in premarket trading Tuesday, meaning the trend will likely continue — or another day at least.
