evidence: Forbes once again searched the country for the richest resident in every state and found billionaires almost everywhere – 47 states are home to at least one member of the ten-figure club. Combined, these 54 people (some of them tied for the top spot in their state) are worth $1.6 trillion, $100 billion more than last year. [...] Alaska, Delaware and West Virginia are the only three states still without a billionaire. In the case of West Virginia, though, retired Intuit CEO Brad Smith and president of Marshall University, is inching closer to the three-comma club amid a more than 50% increase in Intuit shares over the past year, putting Smith’s fortune at an estimated $900 millionCK.
