  • Elon Musk remains the world's richest person with a $839 billion fortune, and his mother, Maye Musk, revealed his minimalist living habits in Boca Chica, Texas.
  • His mother was responding to a tweet that apparently showed her son’s living quarters in Boca Chica, the South Texas community that is home to SpaceX’s Starbase launch site.

  • The original post that Maye Musk was responding to showed a kitchen and living room with a few items. “Elon Musk's house in Boca Chica, Texas. No fancy things, only what's essential for living,” the post read.
  • Forbes's latest World Billionaires List reported a significant increase in global billionaire wealth, adding 390 new individuals, with combined wealth reaching $20.1 trillion.
