This Map Shows The Richest Person In Each State
Our respective states may be united, but we’re always competing against each other. It doesn’t matter if we’re talking about which state is home to the most golf courses per capita, which has the lowest obesity rate, or how rich our richest resident is, we all want bragging rights, because basically we’re all assholes.
The below map shows each state’s richest resident, along with his or her net worth. If you visit the source of this map at Movoto.com, you’ll find an interactive version of the same map. It allows you to hover over each state to reveal a photo of the person listed, as well as a link to their Wikipedia page.

Highest: Bill Gates of Washington, $80 billion
Lowest: Robert Gillam of Alaska, $700 million
Poor ass Robert Gillam probably only has one yacht and like a 2011 PJ with faux wood paneling. What’s wrong, Bobby? You can’t quite hit a billion? You’re the poorest-richest guy in the country. Fuck outta here.

10 years ago at 10:08 amThe fact that I can estimate over 90% of the people on this map were involved in Greek life is what this article should have mentioned.
10 years ago at 10:11 amDorn, I can see why you had the contest looking for writers. Lazy Monday post took a whole ten minutes to google I bet. Keep up the good work until you leave at 11:35.
10 years ago at 10:16 amI bet I could guess which way 90% of them voted 2 years ago.
10 years ago at 10:17 amI voted for Hank Hill, bet they did too.

10 years ago at 10:23 amDoubtful that this is an accurate list.
10 years ago at 10:34 amFrank VanderSloot of Idaho. TFM.
10 years ago at 10:47 amThe Walton family being the richest people of three states. FaF.
10 years ago at 11:06 amOh look, all the rich successful people are republican. That’s a shocker.
10 years ago at 11:07 amI hope you know that from some further research, and didn’t just assume based on the color of the state in this map. As you can tell from the key, the scale is from dark red of $700M to the dark blue of $80B.
10 years ago at 11:37 amIf he did assume by the colors of the states on he map then by that logic the very richest people are blue and therefore….so year F***edupfiiday, you’re a moron. You misguidedly tied to dis dems and ended up complimenting them. Good job.
10 years ago at 11:48 amI have no idea what you are saying.
10 years ago at 12:02 pmOkay, laps taken. My bad. Except Beecher, you’re fucking retarded.
