Phil Ruffin is one of the most\nsuccessful self-made men in Las Vegas. Not only does he have a net worth of\naround $2 billion<\/strong>, but he also owns some of the most iconic casinos on the Las\nVegas strip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n His casinos, which include Circus\nCircus and Treasure Island, bring in hundreds of millions of dollars every\nyear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But despite all this money, and the\nfact he is nearing his nineties, Ruffin still comes into work at 5 A.M \u2026<\/strong>\nto check customer reviews. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Ruffin isn’t just a hardworking casino\nmogul either. He owns several hotels, has a loving family and can even boast\nthat he almost singlehandedly introduced the state of Kansas to self-service\ngas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Add to this an extremely close\nfriendship with former President Donald Trump and you have the makings of an\nunbelievable life story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
