Elon Musk (53) has once again been named the world’s richest man in 2025 with an estimated fortune of $342 billion, according to Forbes’ 39th annual billionaires list, released Tuesday. Musk has co-founded multiple companies, from the electric car manufacturer Tesla to the rocket maker SpaceX and also owns X (formerly Twitter). He most recently made headlines as a temporary government employee under returning President Donald Trump, carrying out controversial deep cuts to government spending and staff - a role he will leave in late May, he said last week.
Next in line come Mark Zuckerberg (40) and Jeff Bezos (61), the founder of tech giants Facebook and Amazon, who has racked up some $215-216 billion worth of wealth each. While Zuckerberg continues on as Meta's CEO, Bezos stepped down from this role at Amazon in 2021 to become an executive chairman.
Larry Ellison (80) of Oracle, Bernard Arnault (76) of LVMH and Warren Buffett (94) of Berkshire Hathaway and Larry Page (52) of Google complete the top eight roundup of most wealthy people in the world. The chart is based on Forbes' calculations using net worths based on stock prices and exchange rates from March 7, 2025.
