What is Elon Musk’s mother Maye Musk’s net worth?

Elon Musk is the world’s wealthiest person and, according to his mom, a very cool human. He’s the founder and CEO of SpaceX, the CEO of Tesla, Inc., the founder and chairman of X Corp., the founder and owner of The Boring Company, the founder and CEO of X.AI Corp., the founder and owner of Neuralink Corp., and the founder of OpenAI, to name a few of his many business ventures.

However, you’d be mistaken for believing he wasn’t born into wealth, as both his dad, Errol Musk, and mom, Maye Musk, are wealthy in their own right Maye is a model and dietitian whose career has taken her worldwide. Born on April 19, 1948, in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, she moved to Pretoria, South Africa, with her family in 1950 and began her modeling career when she made the final of the 1969 Miss South Africa beauty competition.

She continued her modeling career in Canada and the United States, appearing on boxes of Kellogg’s Special K breakfast cereal, in commercials for Revlon, in Beyonce’s “Haunted” video, in advertising campaigns for the likes of Target and Virgin America, and on the covers of magazines like Elle Canada, Time and New York — the latter two on which she was nude. She was CoverGirl’s oldest spokesmodel at 69 and the oldest Sports Illustrated swimsuit model at 74.

Regarding her political views, when Maye became an American citizen, she registered as a Democrat. However, after she discovered some undisclosed Democrats allegedly described her son Elon as “terrible,” she changed her views. She described the party as “malicious and dishonest” and, per the New York Times, switched to being Republican (which, of course, her son infamously is).
