Last year, Arnault surpassed the 51-year-old CEO of SpaceX, claiming the top spot on the list with $31 billion more than Musk. For the past three years, he has been third on the Billionaires list behind Musk and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.

The Frenchman first made the Forbes list in 1997 when he was worth $3.1 billion and rose through the ranks in the years following until he hit the top five richest people in 2011.

He has been the head of LVMH for roughly three decades and helped grow the luxury goods company’s revenue from $4 billion in 1989 to $86 billion last year, according to the outlet. Stock in the company soared 35% over the past year.
