7Richard Scaife – $60 million
Worth billions, Richard Scaife is the heir to the Mellon banking and oil empire.
The billionaire married Margaret in 1991 and 14 years later they separated, when Richard’s relationship with an ex-prostitute became public.
In her jealousy, Margaret was arrested for trespassing at Richard’s house. What do you think she was doing there?
Margaret was trying to take pictures of a romantic dinner between Scaife and the 43-year-old ex-prostitute and that gesture cost her a night in a holding cell, surrounded by criminals.
To make a little fun out of this situation, after the pair split, Margaret had taken their dog. Richard put a sign out front of his house ‘Wife and dog missing! Reward for dog!‘.
