“More than one client has told us that if Elon Musk were to become the first trillionaire… it won’t be because of Tesla,” analyst Adam Jones told the newspaper, referring to the electric car company behind the majority of his wealth to date.
“Others have said SpaceX may eventually be the most highly valued company in the world in any industry,” Jones added.
Though humans have yet to reach Mars, one of Musk’s goals for the company via SpaceX’s Starship, the advanced launch system already has high expectations following the success of SpaceX’s Crew Dragon.https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?gdpr=0&us_privacy=1—&client=ca-pub-2427099653703778&output=html&h=300&adk=2141876619&adf=958524973&pi=t.aa~a.1834861711~i.27~rp.4&w=360&lmt=1634899553&num_ads=1&rafmt=1&armr=3&sem=mc&pwprc=4779063894&psa=1&ad_type=text_image&format=360×300&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F2021%2F10%2Felon-musk-set-to-become-first-trillionaire-on-earth.html&flash=0&fwr=1&pra=3&rh=275&rw=330&rpe=1&resp_fmts=3&sfro=1&wgl=1&fa=27&adsid=ChEI8MLJiwYQ_vGa-fXplMXaARI5AH6YsLnrdtNKWzj9xD_bnBYkY6Z7ydpTuGbybGdkrRrYtIn10KXb9iVDznnLYju-OTBCJfCsjwmP&uach=WyJBbmRyb2lkIiwiOSIsIiIsIkluZmluaXggWDY1MEIiLCI5Mi4wLjQ1MTUuMTE1IixbXSxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbF0.&tt_state=W3siaXNzdWVyT3JpZ2luIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9hdHRlc3RhdGlvbi5hbmRyb2lkLmNvbSIsInN0YXRlIjo3fV0.&dt=1634899553091&bpp=48&bdt=10521&idt=-M&shv=r20211020&mjsv=m202110200101&ptt=9&saldr=aa&abxe=1&cookie=ID%3D6f62d75ac2f0c0c6-2251d019a8c80035%3AT%3D1622665487%3ART%3D1622665487%3AS%3DALNI_MZ85Ep3SvTaGfc8Juk8Onrd6Hwi6g&prev_fmts=0x0%2C360x300%2C360x300%2C360x300&nras=5&correlator=5389450380155&frm=20&pv=1&ga_vid=1187515804.1622665486&ga_sid=1634899547&ga_hid=1499422721&ga_fc=1&u_tz=60&u_his=5&u_h=800&u_w=360&u_ah=800&u_aw=360&u_cd=24&adx=0&ady=2295&biw=360&bih=616&scr_x=0&scr_y=511&eid=31063253%2C21067496&oid=2&psts=AGkb-H8XjuqFXHzpismjW8EvibXxSCOqiDcXMMgU98_DkehIZNkJS2Od4byje1q8tosUiQ3QgeiEgx7h1Qk&pvsid=271944747381345&pem=777&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F&eae=0&fc=1408&brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C360%2C0%2C360%2C720%2C360%2C720&vis=1&rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&abl=NS&fu=1152&bc=31&ifi=5&uci=a!5&btvi=3&fsb=1&xpc=WRP1mNGs0j&p=https%3A//www.lindaikejisblog.com&dtd=751
