Astrid Menks might have struck a literal jackpot when she met Warren Buffet, the richest man in the world. The encounter happened through Warren’s first wife Susan, and by the time she passed away, it seemed like the pair had been engaged in a secret affair for three decades already. Financial success doesn’t often come with moral high ground, but we’re sure that the both of them are alright, considering their collective net worth in the tens of billions.

Priscilla Chan

The wife of Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, Priscilla Chan doesn’t bank on her husband’s success to give her value in her own life. A successful pediatrician on her own accord, as Mark’s wealth compounded, she decided that she wanted to take on a more active role in terms of his philanthropic efforts. Together, they’ve donated Facebook shares worth $55 billion already. That seems like chump change considering their total net worth of nearly double that.
