Business

Cha-Ching! We’ve Got the List of Oklahoma’s Richest People

Shane Bevel for The Washington Post

Oklahoma may not be known for the razzle dazzle of the Big Apple or the City of Angels, but it sure is home to some of the wealthiest self made men and women this side of the windy plains.

  • A Grateful Way to Gather: George Kaiser tops the list of wealthiest Oklahomans at an estimated net worth of 13.2 billion and is the 467th richest person in the world. He’s best known around Tulsa for his Foundation’s backing of Tulsa’s own Gathering Place and boy are we thankful for that 100-acre park along the scenic Arkansas River!

  • How They Made the Moolah: Some of Oklahoma’s richest men and women inherited their wealth but most of them are self made and worked hard to get to where they are today. Oil and gas operations, coal refineries and travel stops are just a few places these millionaires and billionaires started banking their bucks.

See the full list of the richest Oklahomans HERE.
