7 Companies Owned By Elon Musk
Elon Musk, who is on occasion, the richest man in the world, has a fairly decent business-building resume. From his beginnings at PayPal, to his co-founding OpenAI in 2015, he's made a lot of money despite several hidden failures. At the time of writing, Musk has a stake in seven companies, not including those he no longer owns or has exited. The companies are Zip2, which was sold in 1999, PayPal, which was sold in 2002, SolarCity, which was sold in 2016, and OpenAI. OpenAI was not a sale, but Musk did resign from the board of directors in 2018, which meant his $50 million investment pretty much went out the window.
