1. Elon Musk

Where most of you will agree with me however, is that the top spot of these contenders goes to the man trying to colonize mars and the outer solar system.

While Elon Musk only has a current net worth close to $35.4 billion dollars, you could easily imagine his wealth upon completing his space faring goals of colonizing mars, the moon and beyond!

His company, Space X has roughly 7,000 employees but already commands a serious part of the commercial space program and is already worth an incredible $33.3 billion dollars alone.

This is before some of his other impressive companies that include Tesla, with a market cap of $88 billion and Solar City worth $2.6 billion dollars.

Other featured that can be controlled from a mobile phone include the security system, sound speakers and lighting.

Elon owns several cars, one of which he famously sent into space aboard a falcon heavy rocket, and these include a Tesla Roadster, Tesla Model S, Tesla Model X, Jaguar E-Type, BMW M5 and Ford Model T.

He also owned a million dollar McLaren F1, which he crashed, and even purchased the Lotus Esprit submarine car that’s used in the James Bond movie “The Spy Who Loved Me.” for just under $1 million.

But just what could make Elon Musk a billionaire? The answer your looking for lies in Asteroid mining and the unbelievable potential it would bring.

Elon musk was recently hired by NASA to hunt down an Asteroid named 16 Psyche that is thought to contain enough gold to make everyone on earth a Billionaire… or Musk a Trillionaire.

Work has already begun on the unmanned spacecraft that looks set to launch in 2026 and hunt that elusive £8,000-quadrillion fortune.
