A New Website Lets You 'Spend' Elon Musk's Vast Fortune On Everything From PS5s To NFL Teams—And It's Eye-Opening Just How Much Money He Has

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have Elon Musk's fortune? A new website lets you do just that—at least hypothetically. With an estimated net worth of $398 billion, according to Bloomberg, Musk remains the richest person in the world. Now, thanks to an online tool, anyone can attempt to “spend” his wealth on everything from AirPods to mega yachts, and the results are staggering.

How the Website Works

The website Spend-elon-fortune.com starts by giving you an imaginary bank account filled with Musk's estimated wealth. Users can go on a virtual shopping trip, picking things like video game systems, private islands, Tesla TSLA robots, and even an NFL team, which costs about $3 billion.

As you begin to choose luxury goods, you become aware of how difficult it is to spend it all. Even after buying an LA mega-mansion ($52 million), an F1 team ($700 million), and all of Nvidia's NVDA GPUs for 2025 ($4.1 billion), you still have hundreds of billions left.

Reddit Users Try (and Fail) to Spend It All

The website recently went viral on Reddit, where thousands of users tried their hand at spending Musk's wealth. One person said they “bought everything they realistically wanted” and barely cracked $2 billion. Another user joked, “I barely cracked $300 million, and I bought the entire Senate.” Some attempted to give away large sums, but even donating $10,000 to 5,000 people only accounted for $50 million, a tiny fraction of the total.

Many users pointed out how absurd it is for one person to control that much wealth.

Why This Puts Billionaire Wealth in Perspective

The exercise is fun, but it also highlights the massive scale of wealth inequality. Some Reddit users suggested that the website should include options like “end world hunger” or “fund universal healthcare” to see how many global issues could be solved with Musk's fortune. 

Musk's fortune fluctuates daily, largely due to the performance of Tesla stock, which makes up a significant portion of his net worth. Earlier this month, his fortune dipped below $400 billion for the first time this year due to a drop in Tesla’s stock price, but it quickly rebounded.

While most of us will never have anywhere near Musk's level of wealth, this website provides an eye-opening look at just how much money he has. Whether you want to fund startups, buy an entire fleet of private jets, or just stack up on PlayStation 5s, it turns out that even spending hundreds of billions of dollars is no easy feat.
