3. Walton (Estimated family net worth: $130 billion)
While most of these wealthiest families run so many fields of business, Walton family only takes on one. But that one is mega. It is the largest retail in United States, Walmart. The retail’s business revenues reach up to $483 billion in sales. And that is a staggering amount and the biggest in the whole United States.
Sam Walton and his brother James “Bud” founded the retail business in 1962. It grew bigger and bigger until it became what it is today.
After both of the Walton brothers passed away, Walmart was taken over by their children, Sam’s two sons and one daughter, and Bud’s two daughters. Today, the Waltons’ third generation is in charge as chairman, director, and board members alongside Kevin Systrom the co-founder of Instagram and Marissa Mayer the CEO of Yahoo.
Forbes crowned the Waltons as the wealthiest family in United States with its $130 billion estimated net worth.
