It's one thing to be rich. It's another thing to be so rich that you're on a list about rich people.
Forbes Magazine released its annual list of the 400 richest Americans and there are some names that NASCAR fans will probably recognize:
John Menard, Jr. - 57th, $7.5 billion
Austin Cargill II & James Cargill II (Cargill Beef) - 209th, $2.6 billion
Jim France - 273rd, $2 billion
Bob Parsons (GoDaddy) - 296th, $1.9 billion
Roger Penske - 386th, $1.3 billion
In case you were wondering, Bill Gates tops the list for the 20th straight year with his net worth of $72 billion. Imaging the race team you could fund with that kind of dough.
