Analysts from Informa Connect Academy compared the growth rates of personal capital of the richest people in the world and, based on this data, suggested who and when could become the world’s first trillionaire. According to them, Elon Musk has the best chance: he can get $1 trillion by 2027, but Gautam Adani and Jensen Huang can also reach the same milestone by 2028.

This sequence is likely if the rate of wealth accumulation among all billionaires remains at the previous level, The Guardian explains.
That means the owner of Tesla, SpaceX, xAI and X will keep the average annual return at 110%. The chairman and founder of the Adani Group has 123% and the CEO of Nvidia 111%.
Indonesian energy and mining tycoon Prajogo Pangestu (Barito Pacific Corporation) could also become a billionaire by 2028. His net worth is now $43.4 billion, but the average growth rate is 135.95%.
Meanwhile, Bernard Arnault, the boss of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton and the world’s third-richest man, is set to lag behind his rivals as his net worth is growing at just 29%, meaning it could hit $1 trillion around 2030.
The idea of calculating who could become the world’s first trillionaire was born when CNBC recalled that 2026 will mark the 110th anniversary of the birth of the world’s first billionaire: John D. Rockefeller, founder of Standard Oil.
