John A. Sobrato is a billionaire who owns one of the largest real estate firms in the country. However, he mainly has his mom to thank for much of his success. She was the one who took her inheritance and changed the real estate industry. Instead of inheriting a fortune, he inherited a thriving business.

Today, Sobrato’s three children use this massive wealth to lead their own investments – often to much success. His son owns part of the San Francisco 49ers NFL team.
