Who’s the richest person in your state? This interactive map tells all

Who’s the richest Joe in Arkansas? Why it’s Joe Walton, of course. He is one of three relatives of Wal-Mart founder and capitalist pig Sam Walton who have accumulated their own vast wealth.

In case you’re short on time or patience, I will reveal that the wealthiest guy in the country is still Bill Gates (who is worth $80 billion), and after him is Warren Buffet ($63.1 billion).
