To put things in perspective, the $513.4 billion Walton fortune is roughly equivalent to the combined annual revenue of Dallas-Fort Worth Fortune 500 companies McKesson, AT&T, American Airlines, and DR Horton.<\/p>\n
Other Walton family billionaires who own significant stakes in Walmart include:<\/p>\n
Ann Walton Kroenke, who shares a more than 520,000-acre ranch about 170 miles northwest of Fort Worth with billionaire husband Stan Kroenke. She is a daughter of Sam Walton\u2019s late brother, Bud Walton.Billionaire Nancy Walton Laurie, the sister of Ann Walton Kroenke. She primarily lives in the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson.Christy Walton, widow of Alice, Jim and Rob\u2019s brother John. She lives in Jackson, Wyoming.Lukas Walton, son of John Walton, who splits his time between Jackson and Chicago.<\/p>\n
Forbes estimated Alice Walton\u2019s net worth at $123.7 billion<\/a> as of December 17, landing her in the No. 1 spot among the world\u2019s richest women<\/a>.<\/p>\n While she devotes most of her time and energy now to her Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art<\/a> and the new Alice L. Walton School of Medicine – both in her native Bentonville, Arkansas – her official residence is still listed as Fort Worth. She has owned homes and ranches in the Fort Worth area.<\/p>\n Two quotes from Alice Walton, a prominent philanthropist, reflect her attitude toward money:<\/p>\n In second place behind the Waltons on Bloomberg\u2019s list of the world\u2019s richest families is the United Arab Emirates Al Nahyan family ($335.9 billion), and at No. 3 is Saudi Arabia\u2019s Al Saud family ($213.6 billion). The Al Saudi royal family derives most of its wealth from oil giant Saudi Aramco, whose Americas headquarters is in Houston.<\/p>\n The rise in the Walton family\u2019s fortune is tied to the roughly 20 percent spike in Walmart\u2019s stock price<\/a> from mid-December 2024 to mid-December 2025.<\/p>\n Walmart, the world\u2019s largest retailer, rang up revenue of $500 billion<\/a> during the first nine months of its current budget year, which ends January 31. That puts the retailer on track to likely beat its most recent annual revenue of $681 million<\/a>. Walmart\u2019s revenue for the current budget year is expected to total roughly $687 billion \u2014 a financial result that could lift the retailer\u2019s stock price even more and, thus, lift the family\u2019s wealth.<\/p>\n The Walton family isn\u2019t the only family among the world\u2019s 25 wealthiest families with ties to Texas.<\/p>\n The children of Dan Duncan, co-founder of Houston-based oil and gas pipeline company Enterprise Products Partners, sit at No. 24 on the new Bloomberg list, with a combined net worth of $48 billion. That makes them the richest family in Texas.<\/p>\n![\"Alice](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/alice-walton-olivia-walton-annie-leibovitz-and-awol-erizku-crystal-bridges.jpg\")
