— Inside The 2014 Forbes 400: Facts And Figures About America’s Wealthiest | Forbes

Editor’s Note: The discrepancy between the photo’s increase in the 8 Wealthiest Americans and my 8 Richest Americans is likely due to the fact that Alice Walton rose while Michael Bloomberg dropped from the top 8, a shift not reflected above. Figures where gathered via Forbes.
