Jeff Lurie, step right up.

That was the takeaway from the recently released Forbes 400 list for 2025, which included Pennsylvania’s wealthiest residents. Seven billionaires from Greater Philadelphia made the cut.

Lurie purchased the Philadelphia Eagles in 1994 for $195 million, then a record amount for a franchise. It has proven a good investment, and Lurie is generally regarded as one of the best owners in pro sports. Last year, with a Super Bowl win, was an especially good year. Lurie, of Wynnewood, moved up more than 50 spots in Forbes’ annual rankings, to #191, with a net worth of $7.6 billion.

He’s not the only sports team owner on the list, but the list does reflect the spectrum of ways to megawealth. Let’s take a look.
