Richest Kid in America

The Bezos Kids – $44.1 billion each

Until recently, Jeff Bezos was not just the wealthiest person in America, he was also the richest person in the world. Unsurprisingly, this means that his children are also the richest kids in America. He has four children with his ex-wife MacKenzie Scott, although only the name of his son Preston (born in 2000) is publicly known. By one estimate, his children are worth $44.1 billion each.

Bezos is best known for founding internet giant Amazon back in 1994, but he also has interests in other industries. Notably, he founded the space company Blue Origin in 2000 (earlier than even SpaceX; we’ll get back to SpaceX later).

Fun Fact: Before becoming the world’s richest man and founding one of tech’s biggest companies, Bezos worked many jobs, including a stint working at a McDonald’s outlet.

The Musk Kids – $37.9 billion each

The current richest man in the world is Elon Reeve Musk. Today he is perhaps best known for being the founder of Tesla, the world’s largest electric car company. He is also well-known for being the man behind SpaceX, one of the industry leaders in private spaceflight. However, he actually started in tech. His first company was a search directory called Zip2, and he later co-founded what is today known as PayPal.

Musk has seven children through various relationships. Their names are Griffin, Xavier, Kai, Saxon, Damian, X, and Exa. Notably, X made headlines when he was born in 2020 because he was originally to be named “X Æ A-12” (pronounced “Ash A-12″). Although Musk has a larger net worth than Bezos, assuming his wealth is distributed equally, his children would be worth less as there are more of them.

The West Kids – $850 million each

Kanye Omari West (or simply Kanye West) is one of the most successful (and most controversial) musicians today. Whether it’s his hit songs like “Power”, or his antics such as his infamous incident at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, there’s no denying that he has had a colorful career.

Kanye is married to socialite Kim Kardashian (of Meet the Kardashians fame). The couple has four children together: North (yes, her name is North West), Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. If the couple’s net worth was split among the four, each of them would be worth $850 million each.

Suri Cruise – $800 million

Suri Cruise is the only daughter and Tom Cruise and his ex-wife Katie Holmes (Cruise has two other children from previous relationships). You may know Tom Cruise from Top Gun and its sequel Top Gun: Maverick, but he is also one of the wealthiest (and most controversial) actors today. An aspiring model, Suri’s estimated net worth varies from source to source. Some sources give a rather modest figure of around $500,000. However, when taking into account her famous parents, others suggest she could be worth as high as $800 million!

Beyonce and Jay-Z’s Kids – $600 million each

Beyonce is one of the most iconic female vocalists out there, dating back to her days as a member of Destiny’s Child. She’s found even more success as a solo artist with hits like “Single Ladies” and “Run the World (Girls)”.

She has been married to rapper Jay-Z (of “Empire State of Mind” fame) since 2008. The couple has three children together: Blue Ivy, Sir, and Rumi. Each child would be worth around $600 million each if the couple’s $1.8 billion net worth was distributed among them.

Kylie Jenner’s Kids – $480 million each

Kylie Jenner is another member of the Kardashian family (to be specific, she’s Kim’s sister). She has two children with her partner Travis Scott named Stormi and Wolf. Travis is a celebrity in his own right: the rapper is known for songs such as “Upper Echelon”. One estimate suggests that Stormi and Wolf would be worth $480 million.

The Reynolds Kids – $43 million each

Actors Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have been married since 2012 (Reynolds was previously married to Scarlett Johansson, but they divorced in 2011). Reynolds and Lively have three children named James, Inez, and Betty, each of whom would be worth over $43 million if they were to inherit their parents’ fortune equally.

Brad and Angelina’s Kids – $40 million each

From 2005 to 2016, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s romance was the talk of the tabloids and is known as one of the most famous relationships in the world. Indeed, their 2016 split came as a shock to many. The two had six children together: Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh, Pax, Knox, and Vivienne, and as of 2022, custody of their children was still being decided by the courts. Thanks to a trust fund set up by Brad for the kids (some sources put it at $250 million, others put it at $200 million), each child is about $40 million each.

John Legend and Chrissy Teigen’s Kids – $35 million each

John Legend is one of the music industry’s biggest stars. He is known for songs such as “All of Me. He has been married to Chrissy Teigen since 2013; in fact, “All of Me” was dedicated to her. The couple have two daughters together: Luna and Miles, and estimates suggest that each of them would be worth $35 million.
