Some of the people on this list are not old enough to get married, so you will need to exercise a little patience.
Or a great deal, because some of them haven’t yet mastered verbal skills and walking.
What they all have in common is that every person on this list is poised to inherit a huge amount of cash from their incredibly wealthy parents.
Business Insider has compiled a list, so if you’re keen to one day leach off their wealth, here’s a good place to start.
Many of the young heirs of famous billionaires, including the children of the richest people in tech and the richest people in business, will receive large inheritances, if they haven’t already. Meanwhile, other billionaires have promised to give some, most, or, in Warren Buffett’s case, all, of their wealth away.
Sucks to be Warren Buffett’s kid.
You can see the full list here, but we’ll focus on the ‘top six’ list, which takes into account billionaires’ direct descendants and excludes grandkids.
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, the richest person in the world, has four children with his former wife, MacKenzie Bezos
You can see his family in the pic at the start of the article.
The two have three sons and one adopted daughtertogether. Jeff Bezos has a net worth of $156.7 billion. Following the divorce, MacKenzie Bezos’ net worth totals $36.7 billion, thanks to 25% of the former couple’s Amazon stock.
The couple finalised the terms of their divorce in April.
Bill and Melinda Gates have three children together: Jennifer, Rory, and Phoebe. Their eldest is 23 years old
Bill Gates seems like he would be a cool dad.
The couple’s eldest daughter, Jennifer, attended Stanford University. An accomplished equestrian, she is now 23 years old.
Rory, the couple’s only son, turned in 18 in 2017. His younger sister Phoebe, still in high school, attends the private Lakeside High School in Seattle.
Bill and Melinda Gates, along with Warren Buffett, launched the Giving Pledge, which means that they have committed to giving most of their wealth away.
Each of the Gates’ kids will inherit $10 million of their parents’ $98,1 billion fortune. The rest will go to charity.
Bernard Arnault, the richest person in Europe, has five children. Three of his heirs are under the age of 30
All but one of Arnault’s five children are involved in the family business.
Arnault has two children in their 40s from his first marriage, along with three younger sons from his second marriage.
His younger sons are Alexandre, Frederic, and Jean.
Alexandre (age 27) is the CEO of LVMH’s Rimowa luggage label, while Frederic (age 24) is a director at TAG Heuer — LVMH’s largest watch brand.
His youngest son, Jean, is the only heir not yet involved in the company.
Amancio Ortega has two older children from his first marriage and a daughter from his second marriage (pictured below)
Ortega has a net worth of $62,7 billion from his clothing conglomerate, Inditex.
Known as the Zara heiress, his 35-year-old daughter Marta is involved in her father’s flagship company.
According to The Telegraph, “Marta acts as a senior creative consultant on all Zara Woman collections, and evidently has first pick of the new clothes before they hit stores.”
Marta recently got married, so there goes that option.
Larry Ellison has two children: a 33-year-old daughter and a 36-year-old son
Ellison is ranked seventh on Forbes’ Billionaire List with a net worth that exceeds $62 billion. Both of his children have already inherited millions of stock shares from their father’s NetSuite and Oracle companies.
Both children have become successful filmmakers: Megan Ellison was praised as one of Time’s 100 most influential people in 2014 for her work on independent projects such as “Zero Dark Thirty,” “Her,” and “American Hustle,” while David Ellison has been involved in major action movies including “Star Trek Beyond.”
Ellison has also signed the Giving Pledge, and will give away 95% of his wealth to charitable causes.
Mark Zuckerberg has two toddler daughters with his wife, Priscilla Chan
Zuckerberg’s two daughters are the only proof we have that he isn’t a robot.
The couple’s first daughter, Maxima, was born in 2015; their second daughter, August, was born two years later in 2017. Zuckerberg’s net worth totals $62.3 billion, making him the eighth-richest person.
Zuckerberg and Chan have both signed the Giving Pledge, and plan on giving away 99% of their Facebook shares to their joint Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative.
If you aren’t related to anyone super-rich, there’s still hope.
A poor British care worker recently found out that he’d inherited a massive English estate, and all it took was a DNA test.
Still, his case is the exception to the rule, and I wouldn’t go about answering those spam emails about your long-lost millions.
