The wealthiest dynasties in the world have never been richer The story of the world’s wealthiest families over the past year underscores one financial truism: size matters. The 25 richest families are collectively $358.7 billion richer than a year ago, with a combined fortune totaling $2.9 trillion. Their wealth surged due to rising stock prices and demand for goods like metals and pet food, but also thanks to the clout and experience they’ve accrued over decades. The founding family of Walmart, the Waltons, tops the list again this year with a net worth that exceeds half a trillion dollars for the first time. The minimum needed to make the list is higher than ever: $46.4 billion. Plus, four families – from four different continents – join the list for the first time.
