富者愈富。 
福布斯杂志10月最新公布了2017美国400富豪榜，橙县有10人上榜，财富总额为510亿美元，比2016年增加了53亿美元（12%）。 
排名最靠前的橙县最有钱的人是尔湾公司主席、85岁的Newport Beach 居民Donald Bren，净资产163亿美元，比去年增长了11亿美元，在富豪榜上排名第28位。 Donald Bren比另一位Donald，美国总统Donald Trump有钱多了，Trump的净资产是31亿美元，只有不到Bren的五分之一，总统排名在富豪榜的第248位。 
除了Donald Bren，上榜的其他9位橙县富豪分别是： 第87位：David Sun，66岁，净资产60亿美元，尔湾居民，他和John Tu共同创办了内存产品制造公司Kingston。 
并列第87位：John Tu，76岁，净资产60亿美元，Rolling Hills居民，他和上面的David Sun共同创办了内存产品制造公司Kingston。 
第161位：Igor Olenicoff，75岁，这位俄罗斯移民在房地产上取得了巨额财富，净资产42亿美元。 
第172位： James Jannard，68岁，Oakley太阳镜和Red Camera的创办人，净资产40亿美元。 
第186位：Broadcom的共同创办人Henry Samueli，63岁，净资产38亿美元，这位Newport Beach居民同时也是冰球队Anaheim Ducks的老板。 
第226位：Broadcom的共同创办人Henry Nicholas，58岁，住在Newport Coast，净资产33亿美元。 
第324位：Pimco投资管理公司的共同创办人 Bill Gross，73岁，Laguna Beach居民，净资产25亿美元。 
并列第324位：来自凤凰城的墨西哥裔富豪Arte Moreno，71岁，净资产25亿美元，他在2003年从迪士尼公司手上收购了Anaheim Angels棒球队，成为美国史上第一位拉美裔大球团老板。 
第340位：George Argyros，80岁，Newport Beach居民，主要从事房地产投资，净资产24亿美元。
在从Santa Barbara以南到墨西哥边境的整个南加州，共有38位富豪上榜，他们的总资产达到了1790亿美元。其中，以特斯拉电动车和SpaceX闻名的46岁洛杉矶居民Elon Musk是南加州最豪的人，净资产208亿美元，在富豪400榜单中排名第21位。
这些富豪来自各行各业，他们中有些人的名字大家耳熟能详，比如好莱坞的脱口秀女王Oprah Winfrey、大导演Steven Spielberg和制片人David Geffen，他们中一些人的公司大家也都知道，像是Fox Kids TV、Hyatt hotels、Dole pineapples、Forever 21。
仔细考察南加州的上榜富豪从事的行业以及他们资产的总值，我们可以看到下面的几个趋势： 大份额：南加州在私人雇主手下工作的人大概占全美国的7%，如果按照这个比例，400个富豪的7%应该是28名，而南加州有38人上榜，说明南加州的经济实力超强啊！ 财富增长慢：在南加州连续两年上榜的36位富豪中，他们的总财富在最近一年中增长了14%。增幅最大的Elon Musk总资产增加了79%。但是，全部400位富豪的总财富增长率是18%，说明南加州的超级富豪挣钱不够快啊。 科技是热点：上榜的38位富豪中有14位和科技相关，在过去一年中，他们的总资产增加了28%，其中很大一部分原因是得益于科技股的优异表现。 房地产业不温不火：与房地产有关的富豪去年大多表现平平。南加州房地产巨头们的总财富增长了6%，而房地产大鳄、尔湾公司主席Donald Bren的财富也只增长了7%。 第一把交椅易主：因为所处行业的大趋势，南加州最有钱的人从去年的Donald Bren,变成了今年的Elon Musk。 医疗行业充满挑战：38名上榜富豪中的6名财富总值少于去年，其中有两人来自医疗行业。 好莱坞同样充满挑战：随着电影票房的下滑和电视观众越来越少，两位来自好莱坞的超级富豪Oprah Winfrey和Steven Spielberg同样资产缩水。 这里不是硅谷：北加州的超级富豪比南加州多，共有54人，他们的财富总和达到了4340亿美元，而南加州38位超级富豪的财富总和是1790亿美元。
而放眼全加州，共有92人上榜富豪400，占了全美富豪总人数的近四分之一。排名在最前面的当然是硅谷的高科技巨头们，其中小扎Mark Zuckerberg和甲骨文的Larry Ellison分别以总财富710亿美元和590亿美元位列富豪榜的第四和第五位。
Google的Larry Page和Sergey Brin分别以446亿和434亿美元位列富豪榜的第九和第十位。
苹果教主乔布斯的遗孀Laurene Powell Jobs排在第24位。
下面是2017美国400富豪榜的前100名榜单。从榜单公布的10月到现在才短短的一个多月，榜单上的第二名Bezos先生的财富已经超过1000亿美元，成为第一富豪。
