He controls a business empire that sounds like it is close to having a global monopoly on Dust, an all purpose class of material that (probably) isn't going to run out until after he's gone.

It would appear that he also has other companies and products beyond Dust as well. Shi-Nee toothpaste anyone?

His company contributed to the R&D that created the 290s.

I highly doubt that we're likely to see a financial empire that surpasses his, let alone one he'd be able to join through his kids' marriages. That said, i wouldn't be terribly surprised if he tried to arrange marriages for his daughters to spread his influence even further.
