SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) – The “400 richest people in America” list that Forbes Magazine makes every year has been released for 2024. No South Dakotans made the cut this time. The last few years, South Dakota’s richest man, T. Denny Sanford, would appear on the list. However, his $2.1 billion net worth wasn’t enough to make the list this year. As of October 1, Sanford is ranked #1545 for billionaires in the world.
