Elon Musk's current net worth reminds me of the 'Endowner' in Liu Cixin's novel *The Devourer*. In the novel, there's an extreme world: Productivity is highly advanced, but wealth doesn't flow to everyone—instead, it accelerates toward the very top. Eventually, all the planet's wealth, land, resources, and means of production are monopolized by one person. He becomes the sole owner of all assets in the world. The rest of humanity has nowhere to live and is forced to leave. Sounds like sci-fi, maybe even absurd. But if you think about it, the world today is already heading in that direction: AI, rockets, electric vehicles, satellite internet, social platforms, robots, brain-computer interfaces… More and more gateways to future productivity are being concentrated in the hands of a very few. In the past, billionaires owned companies. In the future, they might own the infrastructure itself. Right now, the person most likely to become the 'Endowner' on Earth is Elon Musk @elonmusk. Thankfully, he’s a kind person. Highly recommend everyone read *The Devourer*.
