9. Jim C. Walton, WalMart heir and Chair of Arvest Bank.

Net worth: $34.7 billion.

Jim C. Walton is the youngest son of Walmart founder Sam Walton, who was also well-known as a penny pincher.

Walton owns a great deal of stock in Walmart and runs Arvest Bank, which is a personal wealth management company managed by his family.

His business takes place not in a fancy high rise, but in a forgettable brick building. He and his wife still live in Arkansas, where he was born.

Many of the world’s wealthiest businessmen will tell you that having a large fortune allows you the freedom to do what you want, when you want, and not have to answer to anyone.
