The Golisano Family – $3.1B

Youthful tycoons will most likely be able to talk about the business Paychex in detail, being a prominent workforce service provider within America. Starting in the 1970s, a young entrepreneur called Tom Golisano started the business using just a few thousand dollars. Within the 70s, the company rose to incredible riches, and in 2010 it hit the two-billion-dollar level. While Tom left the daily running of the business, he now possesses leading shares in sports teams like the Buffalo Bandits and Buffalo Sabres. The Golisano group also maintains its dedication to charities, giving millions of dollars annually.

When James M. Cox purchased the tiny homegrown periodical “The Dayton Evening News”, he already believed he could develop it into what today is called Cox Enterprises. It now has stakes in television, radio, and cable and broadband internet services. The group’s leading companies are Cox Media Group and Cox Enterprises, which developed the telecom industry in the United States, specifically with the advent of the internet. The Cox group lately purchased DealerTrack, a business which develops software, specifically for vehicle dealerships.
