NFL franchise Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones possesses the Midas Touch for anything he purchases with his wealth. The lavish life that Jones enjoys from his work in the oil and gas industry has enabled him to buy some of the most expensive possessions in the world. As the former co-captain of the University of Arkansas 1964 national championship team, Jones has been a football-loving fan at heart.
While he ranks as the 86th wealthiest man on the 2021 Forbes 400 list, Jones invests and buys things of great value.
