Person Ever Worth $700 Billion After Delaware Supreme Court Restored His Voided Tesla Stock Options.

The Delaware Court of Chancery had previously ruled in January 2024 that the process underlying the award of the options now worth $139 billion was not fair to shareholders.

Just four days after becoming the first person ever worth $600 billion, Elon Musk became the first person ever worth $700 billion on Friday, after the Delaware Supreme Court overturned a lower court ruling that had voided an award of Tesla stock options now worth $139 billion to Musk. Forbes estimates that Musk’s fortune now stands at a record $749 billion after he successfully appealed the decision.
