Christy Walton
Number 3 on the list of extremely rich people with modest lifestyles is Christy Walton, widow of John T Walton, son of the founder of Wal-Mart.
The late John T. Walton left his wife back in 2005, a pretty impressive fortune, $18,2 billion all his share in the Wal-Mart company and a son to raise.
Even though through the years her wealth went up through the roof being estimated to be number 8th on the list of richest people in the world and the only woman to go this far.
Her private life is pretty modest, after her husband’s death, she activity starting on the line of philanthropy.
Deciding to offer her son a proper modest education and to raise him from a point a view where wealth isn’t the main factor of his growth, she started to donate money to education in Arkansas.
