Susquehanna International Group CEO and Haverford resident Jeff Yass ranked highest in No. 58. His estimated net worth is $12 billion. This is the former professional gambler’s debut on Forbes 400.

The next two local residents are tied for No. 108.

Meanwhile, Philadelphian Victoria B. Mars — great-granddaughter of Mars, Inc., founder Frank Mars — also shares a net worth of $8 billion.

Coatesville resident Mary Alice Dorrance Malone, the largest shareholder in Campbell Soup, follows at No. 318 with net worth of $3.6 billion.

Philadelphia Eagles owner and Wynnewood resident Jeffrey Lurie ranked No. 333 with a net worth of $3.5 billion. He is followed by Philadelphia Phillies owner John Middleton in No. 340 at $3.4 billion.
