Musk has been the wealthiest person in the world since 2025
This start date is wrong. Forbes says Musk has held the No. 1 spot since late May 2024, not since 2025.
Full reasoning
Forbes' June 2026 ranking explicitly says Elon Musk's title as the world's richest person dates back to May 2024, not 2025.
In the June 2026 top-10 list, Forbes states that Musk is the richest person in the world and calls it "a title he's held since May 2024." The same article later says he became the world's richest person again in late May 2024 and has held the top spot ever since.
That directly contradicts the claim that he has been the wealthiest person in the world only since 2025.
