20s: Evan Spiegel
Net worth: $2.1 billion
Age: 25
Country: US
While still a student at Stanford in 2011, Evan Spiegel helped found Snapchat, the messaging app that lets users send disappearing photos to friends, with his classmates-slash-fraternity brothers Reggie Brown and Bobby Murphy. The app took off, making Spiegel a bona fide billionaire by age 23. Today, he continues to run the $16 billion company as CEO.
He hasn’t tied the knot yet, but it’s no secret that Spiegel’s been dating supermodel Miranda Kerr. The pair are often photographed out in Los Angeles, and Kerr is all smiles talking about him. "He's just a really kind person and very genuine and very authentic and I really appreciate that about him,” she told E!.
30s: Lukas T. Walton
Net worth: $10.6 billion
Age: 30
Country: US
An heir to the Walmart fortune, Lukas T. Walton is the grandson of the superstore’s founder Sam Walton. The young Walton is worth nearly $11 billion, but the extent of his wealth only recently came to light, when news broke in November that he had inherited twice as much as his mother, Christy, after his father John died in a plane crash in 2005.
Walton’s always stayed out of the public eye and continues to keep a low profile — little is known about the secretive heir, and he’s rarely, if ever, photographed. As a child, Walton was diagnosed with cancer, but survived. He went on to earn a degree in environmentally sustainable business from Colorado College and is now a partner at Cuna del Mar, a private equity firm that invests in aquaculture.
40s: Sergey Brin
Net worth: $35.8 billion
Age: 42
Country: US
As a Stanford PhD student in 1998, Sergey Brin partnered with classmate Larry Page to create BackRub, an early search engine. The project eventually morphed into Google — now called Alphabet — one of the largest and farthest-reaching companies in the world, worth a whopping $475 billion. While Page handles the more administrative side of running Alphabet, Brin focuses on developing the company’s next big innovation, exploring “moonshot” projects and ideas.
Brin’s personal life has gone less smoothly, however. In 2013, he separated with wife Anne Wojcicki, founder of 23andMe, and shortly after that she learned Brin was having an affair with Amanda Rosenberg, a Google employee who worked on Google Glass. The two divorced in May 2015 after eight years of marriage. Brin and Rosenberg are no longer together, either.
