The founder of Tesla and SpaceX, and more recently the owner of the social network Twitter, Elon Musk set a world record for losing the largest personal fortune in history.. According to the Guinness World Records blog, from November 2021 to December 2022, Musk lost about $165 billion..

It is noted that according to Forbes, in November 2021, the businessman's fortune reached a peak value of $320 billion, and a year later it dropped to $155 billion.. The reason for this was the reduction in the cost of Tesla and the purchase of Twitter.

According to other sources, the fall could be up to $200 billion..

“While it is almost impossible to establish an exact figure, the total far exceeds the previous record of $58.6 billion, which was set by Japanese technology investor Masayoshi Son in 2000,” the report said..

Recall that in December, Musk lost the status of the richest man in the world according to Bloomberg.. Then the first place in the list was taken by the head of the group of companies Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy Bernard Arnault.
