The Green Family – $7B
Commencing in the 70s, David Green made the most out of his $600 to start a private business. A couple of years later, his ventures culminated into his family’s prized kingdom, that being a widespread range of arts and crafts shops known as Hobby Lobby. Exclusively holding Hobby Lobby, David and his relatives funded various religious movements throughout the world, but such assets landed them in hot water. The most publicized case involved the exposure of a Green-led smuggling operation involving stolen historical relics from Iraq and Israel being proudly displayed in Christian exhibitions. Following a massive three million dollars fine, Hobby Lobby was commanded to return the items to their rightful homes.

When John was old enough, he began his own personal real estate business, named the Sobrato Organization, which has property, residential zones and office areas across the country. John’s three children have wielded their magnificent riches towards individual investments and have attained monumental accomplishments, John’s son now being a shareowner of the San Francisco 49ers, a famous NFL team.
