Most of his assets are in meme stocks, not cash (otherwise he would need to pay taxes, completely unacceptable for him)
Tesla stocks are 1000x the real value and Will crash as soon he's no more the CEO.
Same for SpaceX shares that have artificially inflated value from a bullshit valuation of xitter+xai. Not being a public company they can value that at any price, it's not actually worth the 1 trillion they claim themselves
He is no where near the richest person in the world in intrinsic wealth you are right. But when will prices come back to reality? Because it's been inflated so long, is it possible the US government bailing the rich out of downturns has fundamentally changed the economy and pricing of securities?
