How much did Elon Musk’s wealth increase every minute in 2025, close to becoming the world’s first trillionaire?
The world’s richest person, Elon Musk, is very close to becoming the world’s first trillionaire or trillionaire.
In fact, he set a new record for earning the most wealth in a single day on June 11, 2026.
Elon Musk’s company SpaceX is offering its shares to the public on June 12 and the company has raised $75 billion for this.
As a result, Elon Musk’s wealth increased by a record $274 billion in a single day on June 11 and he has now become the owner of $971 billion.
To become the owner of a trillionaire or one thousand billion dollars, Elon Musk needs another $29 billion, which will likely be obtained from the sale of SpaceX shares.
The sale of SpaceX shares is expected to have a market value of $1.75 billion.
It should be noted that Elon Musk owns 42% of SpaceX shares and his wealth has increased by $351 billion this year.
SpaceX is the company that successfully developed the world’s first reusable rocket and created a large satellite network called Starlink.
On the other hand, an Oxfam study showed how much Elon Musk’s wealth increased every minute during 2025.
According to the study, Elon Musk owns more than the combined wealth of 46% of the world’s poorest population.
The study further revealed that Elon Musk’s wealth increased by more than $1 million every minute in 2025, while his overall wealth increased by more than $550 billion in a year.
The study found that if Elon Musk, who owns $1,000, were to spend $1 million every day and his wealth did not increase further, it would take him 2,740 years to spend $1,000.
Similarly, if Elon Musk gave $100 to every person in the world, he would still be among the 10 richest people in the world and would have more than $184 billion left.
