Warren Buffett | Estimated $650k| Omaha

Even during his childhood, Warren Buffett was already quite fond of making investments in various ventures. After reading One Thousand Ways to Make $1000 when he was seven years old, Warren undoubtedly followed the book’s many pieces of advice to heart. Buffet sold chewing gum, Coca-Cola bottles and even installed a pinball machine in a couple of barbershops around his hometown. By the looks of it, all these endeavors undoubtedly helped him become the successful businessman he is today.

With his net worth accumulating to as much as $100.6 billion, Warren is now one of the world’s wealthiest figures. Despite that status, though, the Berkshire Hathaway CEO still prefers to live in a modest home, which just so happens to be a monument in his childhood town of Omaha. He repurchased this calm and peaceful abode in 1958 for $31,500, and since then, its value has risen to around $650,000.
