Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton owes her rich status to her great-grandfather, Conrad Hilton. He founded the Hilton Hotels. But her dad, Rick Hilton is the chairman and co-founder of real estate firm Hilton & Hyland. As a child, she lived in lavish suites in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in Manhattan, Beverly Hills, and the Hamptons. But she’s earned some money through modeling, TV appearances and endorsements, too. Her net worth is about $300 million, according to Showbiz Cheat Sheet.
