“primarily as a result of his booming space exploration business SpaceX.”
Huh? Where is the profit from that? Are that many people lining up to fly in it?

SpaceX is the only US entity that can fly astronauts into orbit (even NASA cannot), and the major provider of cargo/satellite services as well. This business only will grow, especially with Starship coming online soon.

I think SpaceX is ancillary. When Musk makes Starlink public, that will become the golden goose. As Ukraine is now a test market for fast deployment and bypassing censoring, a global revenue stream could shift much of the world’s users of current internet providers his way. $50 per month per antenna times 2-3 billion customers is serious cash. SpaceX would become the service staff for Starlink.

Cargo, satellites, people...He has developed a system that has dramatically reduced the cost of launching payloads.
