The Irish billionaire, John Dorrance, III, has a net worth of $2.5 billion.
John Dorrance, III, who is the grandson of John Dorrance I, the founder of Campbell soup, amassed his wealth by selling his family business.
Between 1995 and 1996, he sold a significant portion of his inherited 10.5% stake in Campbell Soup for $1.5 billion in a single year.
He made a smart decision by placing a bet before the stock plummeted and renounced US citizenship to relocate to Ireland to avoid paying estate and capital gains taxes on any unexpected profits.
He has lived a peaceful life in the south of Dublin, occasionally traveling to the Bahamas with his wife in the Bahamas.
Previously, he was part of multiple campaigns to legalize game ranching in Wyoming and fox hunting in Great Britain.
