Billionaire Kevin O'Leary still shops at Walmart for household essentials. He believes saving money is crucial, regardless of one's wealth.

Canadian billionaire Kevin O'Leary, with an estimated net worth of $400 million, maintains his affinity for shopping at Walmart. In a recent Instagram video, the 72-year-old investor expressed his commitment to finding a good deal, emphasizing that a bargain is a bargain regardless of one's financial status. O'Leary's favorite WalMart find is his signature black jeans, purchased for just $29.
Even on routine errands, he admits he can't help but search for better value. Recent purchases included batteries, butter, paper towels, and laundry spray. Despite his immense wealth, O'Leary continues to shop at Walmart, arguing there's no reason to overpay for everyday items when a cheaper alternative works just as well. His frugal habits extend beyond personal savings; he also avoids wasting money due to the belief that it may not be available tomorrow.
