What other workers make $100 billion per year?
Every cashier in the U.S.
The combined paychecks of all 3.2 million cashiers are about as valuable as Musk’s average annual compensation.
Every elementary school teacher
On average, Musk will make $3 billion more per year than the 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined.
Every human resources specialist in the country
The combined incomes of 917,000 human resources specialists add up to $26.7 billion less than Musk’s average annual pay package.
