I would like to explore how Elon Musk of $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ and Jeff Bezos of $Amazon.com(AMZN)$  fame would match-up, if they go head-to-head in four areas I think are key to determine who would be the richest man in the world, come 2023. Here goes….

So our final score in this match-up is 3-to-1 in favour of Elon Musk. Jeff Bezos is certainly a worthy competitor and a very rich man. I really like what he said which I think is applicable to investing and trading as well.

“I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing…and I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all” – Jeff Bezos

Let’s see if my attempt at predicting who is the richest man in the world matches up with reality come 2023. If not, I don't think I'd regretted trying and falling too!
