    Almost always executive compensation is partly stock. That doesn’t change the fact that he was compensated that much. You can’t say Elon Musk isn’t worth 200b$ because it’s not liquid.

      I mean, you could say that because it’s just an estimate of what his assets are worth using the current valuations of his holdings. It’s more of a statistical average of what he could be worth then a concrete value. You can’t know the actual value unless someone makes an offer and it’s accepted. If he’s feeling pressure to sell, it will be lower than that. If he isn’t, it will be higher than that.
