Tesla CEO Elon Musk's net worth soared to $749 billion last Friday night after the Delaware Supreme Court restored Tesla stock options worth $139 billion that were scrapped last year, according to the “Forbes” Billionaires Index. Musk's 2018 salary plan, which was worth 56 billion US dollars, was rejected by a lower court two years ago as “outrageous,” but now the Delaware Supreme Court announced the reinstatement of the plan this Friday. The Supreme Court said that the 2024 ruling to rescind this pay plan was inappropriate and unfair to Musk. Earlier this week, there were reports that its space startup Space Exploration Technology may soon go public, and Musk's net worth surpassed 600 billion US dollars, becoming the first richest person in the world to achieve this achievement.
