Elon Musk is the richest man on the planet, and according to Forbes, he has an estimated fortune of $272.5 billion. With a fortune like that, many people would think the tech mogul owns multiple properties in the United States, castles in Europe, extravagant residences in Asia, or even a private island in the Caribbean.
