Howard Hughes: The Aviator - Wealth
Time: 1966
Place: U.S.
Details: It isn't known exactly how much he was worth at the time of his death, but ten years before he died, he was forced to sell his shares in the airline company TWA. The payout? $546 million (about $3.8 billion today), estimated by some to have been about 1/3 of his net worth.
