Ever wondered who had the most money in Florida? If so you have come to the right article. “Here is the wealthiest person in Florida.” I won’t tell you just yet, but you will find out below.
Yes, we have a lot of famous people who live in Florida, but this wealthy individual is not an athlete or entertainer. I have actually never heard of him until today. Each and every year Forbes releases a list of the 400 wealthiest people in the United States.
Who Is The Wealthiest Person In The United States?
He is a very controversial person but Elon Musk is the wealthiest person in the United States. He has a net worth of $251B. I am actually no longer on Twitter because of him. I’m sorry it’s now called X. I will give him his props however, he has done well for himself. It’s almost impossible for him to go broke.
He has created generational wealth and that should be the goal for everyone. Musk has 11 kids and those kids will never have to want for anything.
How did the people who made this list make their money?
This list includes people who have earned their wealth through software, investments, retail, sports, family ties and food. To make the list, billionaires had to make at least $2.9 billion!
There are a lot of familiar names on this list. Especially the heirs! For instance, the grandson who founded Walmart has made this list. The son of the founder of Chick-fil-A has made this list as well. They so far seem to be making their family proud and keeping the family business alive.
