What Elon Musk's trillion means in real terms

Elon Musk became the world's first trillionaire after SpaceX's market debut, with Forbes valuing him around $1.1 trillion (mostly in stock).
To visualize $1 trillion: it could buy roughly 2.5 million U.S. homes at the median price, is more than double South Africa’s annual GDP, or would equal about $122 per person if divided among the global population.
The milestone highlights extreme wealth concentration — Musk's fortune now roughly matches (and slightly exceeds) the combined net worth of the next four richest people, sparking debate over inequality.
