The world's richest man keeps getting richer. Elon Musk’s net worth has hit a major milestone, surpassing $300 billion for the first time in nearly three years, Bloomberg reports.
The jump follows growing optimism that President-elect Donald Trump's administration would provide a favorable environment for Musk's businesses. For example, Trump has promised to ban self-driving Chinese electric vehicles, a key competitor for Musk's Tesla robotaxi.
