Wrestling, cannabis, bitcoin and stocks: This is how Trump’s government of billionaires invests
Whenever there is talk about Donald Trump and his government of billionaires, all eyes immediately turn to Elon Musk, the richest man in the world thanks to his stakes in Tesla, SpaceX and the social media network X, among other companies that he owns.
