Stan Kroenke began making big money in the real estate world after starting his own company, The Kroenke Group, which focused primarily on developing shopping centers and apartment complexes. He earned enough money to start another company, Kroenke Sports Enterprises, where he has purchased several professional sports teams.

In addition to owning the NFL's Los Angeles Rams, Kroenke also owns the Denver Nuggets, Arsenal FC, Colorado Avalanche, and Colorado Rapids, among others as well. He also holds all of the stadiums his teams play in while also being one of the largest landowners in the country, including working ranches and wineries.

#2 - David Tepper, Carolina Panthers - $15 billion

David Tepper made his fortune as a hedge fund manager. He worked for Goldman Sachs for many years and infamously tried several times to become a partner but continuously got rejected. That sparked him to start his hedge fund, Appaloosa Management, which was wildly successful.

Tepper is one of the NFL's newest owners and one of the richest while being considered a financial genius. In addition to owning the Carolina Panthers in the NFL, he also holds the Charlotte FC team in the MLS.

#1 - Jody Allen, Seattle Seahawks - $20 billion

Paul Allen, who unfortunately passed away in 2018 from cancer, started a living trust in 1993, the Paul G. Allen Trust, which controls all of his assets. He was never married, nor did he have any kids, so his sister Jody Allen is the chairperson and primary heir to his fortune and the majority owner and chairperson of the Seattle Seahawks.

Paul Allen is most famously known for co-founding Microsoft with Bill Gates, but he has plenty of other ventures, including a real estate empire. He was also a key member of many successful start-ups, including Uber, Dreamworks, and Ticketmaster.
