The internet is trying—and failing—to spend Elon Musk’s $342 billion

How would you spend $342 billion?
A number of games called “Spend Elon Musk’s Money” have been popping up online, inviting users to imagine how they’d blow through the wealth of the world’s richest man.
“If Elon cashed out all of his stocks & assets today he would have approximately $354,000,000,000 (US Dollars) in his bank account (Forbes 2025),” reads one such website. “What would you spend it on?”
Among the options: a Tesla Bot for $20,000, your own satellite stamped with your name for $80 million, eating out for every meal for 80 years for a modest $4.1 million, or the Mona Lisa, priced at an estimated $869 million. Even if you bought all of those, you’d only have spent about 0.27% of Musk’s total wealth, according to the calculator. To put it in perspective, spending $1 million every single day would still take about 970 years to exhaust Musk’s fortune.
On TikTok, users are trying it themselves—adding to their bill seven motorcycles, 20 Ferraris, 20 skyscrapers, 16 tanks, 32 Rolexes, 5 gold bars, 21 yachts, 25 Formula One cars, 15 Boeing 747s, and 20 helicopters, to name a few. Even after all that, they still had more than $24 billion left.
“No one needs this much money,” one person commented. “I just want to afford my bills …” another added.
Another TikTok user visited the website youvsabillionaire.com and plugged in the average American salary of $66,000. “You putting 25 cents in a parking meter is like Elon Musk buying a Rolls Royce,” she explained. “You buying a $350,000 home is 19 cents to Elon Musk. You finding $20 in your pocket would be the same as Elon finding $37 million in his pocket.”
How that fortune holds up with his proposed plans to form a new political party remains to be seen. Last week, Musk announced on X the formation of the “America Party,” which he claimed would give Americans back their freedom. On Monday, Tesla stock fell sharply.
President Donald Trump responded in a Truth Social post on Saturday that Musk has gone “off the rails essentially becoming a TRAIN WRECK over the past five weeks.”
Musk spent nearly $300 million to help Trump and other Republicans get elected last year. Seems he could’ve better spent that money on two private islands, three Lamborghini Aventadors, and a satellite with his name on it.
