What is Elon Musk's net worth right now?

The figure on the live counter at the top of this page is the current estimate, updated every minute. It is computed from real-time TSLA, his disclosed holdings, the latest reported SpaceX valuation, and estimates for his other companies, less pledged-share liabilities.

How much of Elon Musk's net worth is in Tesla?

Roughly 40–55% depending on TSLA's price on the day. Direct shares (411M shares) plus the 2018 CEO performance options (304M options at a $23.34 average strike, valued at intrinsic value) make up the Tesla component.

How much of Elon Musk's net worth is in SpaceX?

Roughly 50–60% depending on the latest private-market valuation mark. We currently use $1.25 trillion as the SpaceX baseline (consistent with the December 2025 secondary tender) and apply a 5% liquidity discount.

Does this number include taxes owed?

No. Net worth as published here is gross of unrealised capital gains tax. If Musk sold his Tesla position, federal and state long-term capital gains tax would reduce the after-tax figure by roughly 30%. Forbes and Bloomberg also publish gross figures.

How this number is calculated

Every input above is documented on the methodology page. The TSLA price is polled from Yahoo Finance every 60 seconds during US market hours and every 5 minutes overnight. The SpaceX valuation is updated whenever a new tender, funding round, or IPO pricing is reported. Estimated values for X, Neuralink, and The Boring Company are revised at each new reported funding round.

Forbes & Bloomberg comparison

Forbes and Bloomberg publish their own real-time billionaire estimates with slightly different assumptions. Our calculation typically lands within 2–4% of the Forbes figure on any given day. The most common source of divergence is how each tracker marks SpaceX (Bloomberg tends to be conservative on private-company valuations; Forbes is closer to the most recent reported tender).
