Jim C. Walton, Walmart heir and chair of Arvest Bank
Net worth: $19.2 billion
Walton may belong to one of the wealthiest families in the world, but he has followed in the frugal footsteps of his father, Walmart founder Sam Walton.
The youngest and most private of the Walton siblings, Jim still resides in Bentonville, Ark., where he runs the family's personal wealth management company from the upstairs office of "a plain old brick building" in downtown Bentonville.
In 2007, it was reported that Walton drove a 15-year-old Dodge Dakota.
