Elon Musk's $419.9B net worth puts things in perspective: If you earn the US average salary (~$55K/year), you'd need 7.6 million years to match his wealth — that's longer than humanity has existed as bipedal creatures.
Even wilder: His fortune equals the **combined lifetime earnings of 246,471 average Americans** (who earn ~$1.7M over a lifetime).
Or think of it this way — if median household income ($80K) = 38 miles of steps, Musk's net worth = 198.8 million miles of steps. Enough to walk Earth-Mars-Earth over 400 times.
It's the kind of wealth gap that makes you rethink... everything.
