The net worth of the world’s 500 richest people skyrocketed by a combined $1.5 trillion this year — a stunning reversal from the $1.4 trillion lost by those on last year’s list, APA reporst citing New York Post.

Leading the way was social media and tech tycoon Elon Musk, the world’s richest person, whose fortune grew $95.4 billion to $232 billion — thanks largely to his 12.95% stake in Tesla, which experienced its own impressive gain so far this year.

The world’s most valuable carmaker finished the year trading at $248, a staggering 130% increase from last year.
