Mark Zuckerberg, CEO and Founder of Facebook, now still drives a manual-transmission Volkswagen hatchback almost on a daily basis.
Adorning Bill Gates's wrist is a $10 watch, and Gates likes to wash the dishes at home every night for his family.
Carlos Slim Helú, Founder of Grupo Carso, has lived in the same six-bedroom house for more than 40 years.
Charlie Ergen, Chairman of Dish Network, still packs a brown-bag lunch everyday.
Amancio Ortega, Founder of Inditex, eats lunch with his employees in the Zara headquarters cafeteria.
