The value of the assets of the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, exceeded the assets of the businessman Warren Buffett, and he became the seventh richest person in the world.
Musk's wealth grew by $6,07 billion, Bloomberg News reported, after a 10,8 percent increase in the electric car maker's shares.
The value of Buffett's assets was reduced earlier this week when he donated approximately $2,9 billion worth of Berkshire Hathaway conglomerate shares to four humanitarian organizations and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation for humanitarian purposes, reports B92.
It's the last but not the least contribution in his plan to distribute his wealth. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is the richest man in the world with $179 billion, and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is second with $116 billion.
Tesla shares have jumped 500 percent over the past year after the company boosted Model 3 sales.
