There are 660 billionaires across the world and Florida is home to 80 of these people. Most of the billionaires in the United States have made their money in Investments, food, drink, fashion, retail, media an entertainment. Stacker created a list of the richest billionaires in Florida using data from Forbes. Before moving to Tampa, I lived in the Naples area. There are so many wealthy people in that city.
