There is a case where the pay package he was granted in 2018 was rejected that is worth $100B in total Tesla's trading value.<p>I assume that was not included. And if the case would be turned down later, would that put him as first person to hit Half a Trillion Net worth?<p>I still remember in 2013 / 2014 we thought trillion dollar market cap were impossible due to law of big numbers. And even though my model project Apple to be the a Trillion Dollar market cap company I didn't even believe it myself.

Here’s a basic question I have:<p>So he’s only worth that much on paper. He’d have to sell everything to get a big pile is cash.<p>Would there be enough money sloshing around to buy all his shares and assets at the indicated value?<p>I guess there is, but surely he wouldn’t get that much if he had a fire sale?
