5. Elon Musk – Net Worth $12.8 Billion

Born in South Africa, Elon Musk is the mind behind both Tesla Motors and SpaceX. Having made his money by co-founding PayPal, Musk has since dedicated himself to helping humanity reduce its carbon footprint and getting the world to focus on the stars once again. While his Tesla Motors is still struggling to be more than a fuel-efficient figurehead, his private space venture, SpaceX, is making amazing strides in the technology of space travel.
