3. Christy Walton
Christy Walton is currently the ninth richest person in the world, with a net worth of $38.8 billion. Her father-in-law is Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart. She was married to John T. Walton, who died in a plane crash nearly 10 years ago. His net worth before his death was $18.2 billion, all of which he left to his wife and son. Christy was always known for her philanthropic activity, having donated a lot of money to the University of Arkansas, as well as a few other universities. She never experienced the lavish lifestyle her money can afford, because she wanted her son to have a normal upbringing. She even donated her house after her husband died.
