As of January 2025, Elon Musk's net worth is estimated to be between $426 billion and $436 billion, according to Forbes and the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

In comparison, Nigeria's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was reported at $252 billion in 2024. The Central Bank of Nigeria projects a GDP growth of 4.17% for 2025, which would bring the GDP to approximately $262.5 billion.


Meanwhile APC urchins are busy either dragging Peter obi or producing endless statistics of how VAT is generated in the 36 states or opening Meaningless threads on the calming security situations in the eastern part of the country.

Please how base can base get to before there is a real improvement.

You replied a guy that started his statement with "If"

How does one even bank on an event that hasnt happened at all and still compare to actual instances as complex as the economy of a country

Thats an hypothetical statement from him

Ignore empty theorists like Salamrushdee.

When PDP took over our GDP was less than 100 billion they left it at 570 billion
You doubt they would have taken it to 800 billion in 10 years?

Most of his money is not real money but the value of shares he holds in his companies. It's not cash.

Your head dey there, Roboto11.
In fact not only was the Austria-Hungary empire one of the most economically viable at one point, Hungary itself has produced 15 Nobel prize winners to date.

So that's something the naysayers can feast on.

What has Nobel prize got to do with the topic?

Rubbish.

Every country has something they can boast of. Nigeria has the world’s 2nd or 3rd largest film industry, and is a rising global cultural icon which Hungary isn’t.
