City Blackout Halts Waymo Robotaxis As Tesla Self-Driving Cars Continue Moving
Musk's fortune now exceeds that of Larry Page, the world's second-richest person
Tesla adds another piece to India’s electric mobility puzzle with a new high-speed charging hub in Gurugram.
Elon Musk has just rewritten the record books on personal wealth. A stunning new valuation for SpaceX – set at around $800 billion in a blockbuster insider share sale – has sent Musk’s net worth soaring by nearly $167 billion in a single move, to roughly $638 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. In this video, we break down how one re-rating of SpaceX turned into the biggest wealth surge ever linked to a single individual, and how Tesla, X and xAI are adding extra thrust to Musk’s financial liftoff. We also stack Musk’s fortune against the rest of the world’s richest – from Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg – and explore whether Musk could realistically become the world’s first trillionaire. Watch this deep-dive explainer on the man who has taken the rich list into a whole new orbit.
Elon Musk nearly lost Tesla and SpaceX in 2008. With no money, no investors, and three rocket failures, he risked everything on one last launch—and rewrote history in the process.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has delivered a powerful message for India’s next generation of entrepreneurs. Speaking to investor Nikhil Kamath on the People of WTF podcast, Musk urged young founders to focus on creating real value rather than chasing funding or hype. His core advice was simple: “Be a net contributor to society. Make more than you take.” At a time when India’s startup ecosystem is booming, Musk’s words act as a reminder that true entrepreneurship is measured by impact, innovation and problem-solving, not valuations. He emphasised that the leaders of the next decade will be those who build products and services that genuinely improve lives, shape industries and strengthen the nation’s growth story.

“We’re talking about a post-scarcity world,” he explained — one where the challenge is not productivity, but distribution. In such a world, people don’t just survive — they thrive, with access to goods, services, and experiences previously considered luxuries.
As India positions itself as a global AI hub, Musk’s twin messages — work as a choice, and ethics as a necessity — challenge the country to think beyond short-term wins.
The new preview follows an earlier 39-second “funny” teaser posted earlier this week. That clip showed Kamath and Musk seated quietly amid industrial equipment, sipping coffee, smiling and sharing silent laughs.
Tesla sets down its biggest India market yet with a single-site hub that combines retail, charging and service into one seamless experience.
