  • Maye Musk was famous long before son Elon thanks to her modelling, and once starred in a Beyoncé MV, while siblings Kimbal and Tosca also worked hard to make millions
  • Errol Musk’s fortune is the most controversial as he’s rumoured to have owned an emerald mine, and now he fathers two kids with his stepdaughter – but how much does he make?

Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, is also the most famous of his family members. But his mum, dad, siblings and ex-wife, who all share the Musk name, also quietly enjoy enormous self-made fortunes.

Elon, 51, grew up in Pretoria, South Africa, with parents Errol and Maye. He’s the eldest of three children, followed by his brother Kimbal and sister Tosca. According to reports, the Musk family lived a very comfortable lifestyle, with the kids going on holidays and attending private schools throughout their childhood.

The entrepreneurial spirit clearly runs in this family’s veins. Elon and Kimbal joined forces with their cousins on multiple mini ventures as youngsters, reported CNBC. Their cousins Russ, Peter and Lyndon Rive have all since gone on to become successful businessmen in the tech sector too.

But although the Tesla CEO is highly regarded as the Musks’ main genius, Elon has raised eyebrows with his growing list of baby mamas and that controversial Twitter deal fallout. Nevertheless, the eccentric entrepreneur still remains on top as the world’s richest individual with US$260 billion in the bank.

But how much do the other Musks make?
