This is a pretty comprehensive list of the most famous billionaire couples of the world. Take a good look at these people, and make sure to do a little bit more research on what makes a man, or a woman, a billionaire.

Maybe some of these stories will inspire you. I bet there are a billion dollars right now waiting for you somewhere!
