HL Hunt children are William Herbert Hunt, Ray Lee Hunt, June Hunt, Helen LaKelly Hunt, and Swanee Hunt.
William Herbert Hunt
William is an American billionaire and former silver trader. He was born as the sixth child of HL and his first wife Lyda Bunker in 1929 and is currently 94 years old.
Herbert currently has a net worth of $2.5 billion in 2023, according to Celebrity Net Worth. Back in the 70s, William got involved in a scam alongside his late brother Nelson.
The siblings reportedly stocked over 12 million pounds of silver with the intention to create a shortage and hike the price.
William and Nelson eventually hiked the price of silver from just $6.08 per ounce to $49.45. However, their scam was discovered which caused the Commodity Exchange, Inc (COMEX) to adopt a Silver Rule 7 policy. The policy helped in dropping the price of silver to more than 50% in only four days.
The COMEX policy change nearly bankrupted William who had taken loans to purchase the silver.
Ray Lee Hunt
Ray Lee is an American businessman and billionaire. He was born in 1943 as the son of HL and his third wife Ruth Ray.
However, his parents were not married at the time of his birth. The 80-year-old acquired a significant share of Hunt Oil Company after his father's death in 1974.
The company saw massive growth under his leadership which, in turn, boosted his personal fortune. Ray's fortune grew from $200 million to $4.6 billion in 2006. As of 2023, Lee is the richest member of the Hunt family with an estimated net worth of $6.1 billion.
Like his father, Ray was also involved in the oil business during his active years. He founded Hunt Consolidated, Inc, and still serves as the company's Executive Chairman. Meanwhile, his son Hunter L Hunt serves as a co-CEO of Hunt Consolidated, Inc, and the CEO of its subsidiary Hunt Consolidated Energy, LLC.
Lee got married to Nancy Ann Hunt two weeks after graduating from Southern Methodist University in 1965. The couple went on to have five kids and nine grandkids.
As of 2023, Ray resides in Dallas, Texas, with his wife and family.
