Elon Musk is about to get a lot richer
CNN
It's been a rough start to 2022 for the world's richest person. He's not too worried, though.
Elon Musk's holdings of Tesla stock have lost about $30 billion this year through Monday's close, as the stock slid 12%.But the next 12 months could be the most lucrative ever for Musk. If analysts are correct, Tesla will report strong financial results this year that will net Musk billions of dollars in stock awards.
Musk doesn't receive any base salary or cash bonus from Tesla. Instead, he receives stock options based on the company hitting certain financial and market value targets. His 2018 pay package allocated 101 million split-adjusted shares that would be awarded to Musk in 12 equal tranches, as the company hit those benchmarks.
