He's not the richest man on the planet. His stock value is worth what sums up to be the "official" richest man on the planet.
That's what his assets are valued to be; the "richest". If he were to cash out all those assets (stocks) he would plummet the price of those stocks and lose billions.
And the answer to your question is simple. People buy his companies stocks driving the price up and since he owns massive portions of those companies via stock ownership, the value of every stock he owns runs up, making him the "richest" man in the world.
His company is what's known as "growth stocks" or "momentum stocks". They rise rapidly and fall dramatically, hence "growth" and "momentum".
He wouldn't be able to sell all his positions without causing a massive supply dump. It would drive the price down and trigger more selling driving the price further down.

It has nothing to do with products he sells.
Like Gates was he's the "richest" man that normies are allowed to know about. How does his wealth compare to that of the richest Rothschild?
Exactly. They want you to think some cartoon character like Musk or Gates is the worlds richest man. It's jokes.
If he cashed out of his positions, making the market dump, it wouldn't effect his net worth since he'd be in cash already
