wealth

Having too much money can complicate your life. Just ask the residents of Missouri's richest small town where everyone makes way more than 200 grand. Cha-ching.

There's a brand new ranking of the world's richest and 5 Missouri billionaires made the list of the top 400. The richest in the Show Me State is now the most financially successful woman in the state.

This is some of the hardest math I've done in my life. I got curious about how the wealthiest people in the world compare to the richest in Missouri. Would you believe the richest dude I could find anywhere around the globe is apparently more than 25 times wealthier than Missouri's top guy?

Even among those who are considered rich and famous would find this Missouri place pricey. It's the most expensive neighborhood in the entire state where homes average a cool $2 million dollars.

I guessed who the richest celebrity was from Illinois and I got it completely wrong. I can give you two hints, but you'll probably only need one. He's afraid of snakes.

Where is the money in America? Apparently a lot of it is living near Lake Michigan in Illinois as one of those cities landed on the top 10 richest cities in America list.

If you want billionaires, you don't have to look outside Illinois' borders to find a bunch of them. 24/7 Wall Street says that Illinois is home to 17 billionaires, with 11 in Chicago and 2 in Highland Park.
