However his net worth has been as high as $320 Billion while his companies have received about $7 Billion from the Feds. To be fair, it wasn't all subsidies. Much of it was payment for work done on space stuff, misguided though it may have been. You are probably right that he didn't make his fortune from selling Teslas but he didn't get it from US taxpayers either. Facts can be inconvenient when they are so easily checked.:R
Elon is not the richest (or was) man in the world from selling Teslas. It's because the US gave him Billions in funding from taxpayer dollars.
