wealth

The richest man in Missouri has just made another prestigious list that shows his wealth has now made him worth a stunning $9.3 billion dollars.

Illinois now has one of the largest gaps between the rich and the poor in America.

There are a lot of ways to measure wealth. If you're looking purely at dollars and economies, Missouri is sadly again ranked among the poorest states in America for 2025, but there's some good news, too.

There is a new richest city in Missouri for 2025 and it's loaded with wealth in virtually every nook and cranny.

The richest man in Illinois alone is now more than 23 times wealthier than Taylor Swift.

There's rich and then there's RICH. This is that second one. Did you know that the richest man and woman in Missouri are now worth more than $8 billion dollars each? The official real-time wealth tracker confirms it.

I always knew Illinois had a handful of wealthy suburban neighborhoods surrounding Chicago.

There's a brand new list of the wealthiest people in the world and Missouri has a new (sort of) number one richest person. This guy is so wealthy, he could afford to buy 3 billion candy bars and that's even allowing for inflation on chocolate.

Wealth is very much a subjective thing. What one person might consider a pittance would feel like a fortune to someone else. How much do people think (key word) they need to live comfortably in Illinois? The numbers are ridiculous.

There are a lot of ways to define "wealth", but for the sake of simplicity, let's focus on how much the average family makes in each Missouri city and town. The 25 richest seem to be rolling in the dough and there's a new number one at the top of the list.
