New York City's richest resident David Koch shares control of $115 billion (sales) Koch Industries, the second largest private company in the U.S., with his older brother Charles. Koch Industries has interests in oil pipelines, refineries, building materials, paper towels and Dixie cups, and is growing with acquisitions fueled by the company's prodigious cash flow. Charles is chairman, while David runs its chemical technology business. The brothers' fortunes fell slightly in the past year owing to weakness in the manufacturing and pipeline sectors. He's also joined his brother's campaign to raise and spend almost $900 million on political activity, education and issues like criminal justice reform in the run-up to the 2016 election. He is an active philanthropist, having doled out $1.2 billion so far. The Metropolitan Museum of Art has the David H. Koch Plaza, part of a $65 million renovation he funded, and Koch, who has battled prostate cancer, paid $4 million of a $150 million pledge to build a new facility at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
