In addition to Tesla electric cars and the ambitious Space X space project, Elon Musk also has the Neuralink company, whose ambition is to develop technology that can connect the human brain with a computer.

Musk is now worth more than 1.5 trillion Swedish crowns, a third of Sweden’s GDP. And now he’s passed Amazon’s Jeff Bezos as the richest man in the world, according to The Independent. Musk’s overtaking has to do with a surge in Tesla shares – the company has risen steadily over the past year and is the most valued auto company. It is worth more than Toyota, Volkswagen, Hyundai, GM and Ford combined.

– How strange … Well, it’s time to get back to work, Musk comments on Twitter.

However, the nomination as the richest in the world is in dispute. According to Forbes, Jeff Bezos still tops the list. Forbes has made a more conservative assessment, because Musk has pledged part of his shares as collateral for a loan.

Musk comments further on the matter on Twitter:

– Comments are always appreciated, so even advice on where to donate money is harder than it sounds, writes Musk.
