What job would rich parents have, that would make them well known?

The very rich don't have to have jobs, they live off their inheritance. Things that make a person whose parents were not wealthy very rich would be founding a gigantic company like Facebook or Apple, being an elite athlete, being among the top 1 or 2% of entertainers, investment banking, being the CEO of a major company and/or lottery winners. Law, medicine, politics and a few other careers can set a person up for a very nice standard of living but generally don't make Bill Gates kind of super, mind boggling wealth.

Business owners, Oil Tycoon, Energy Magnate, Lumber Baron, Logging Owner, Alcohol or Tobacco business owner, Computer Genius Bill gates comes to mind, Inventor, Renowned scientist, Fashionista, Celebrity, Pro Sports Athlete, Supermodel, Singer, Comedian. YOUTUBER

So much would depend on where in the world they are (or were, if the story is set in the past) and on what sort of society they move in. Help us by giving some background to your idea.

Maybe: banker; real estate; movie star; relative of Donald Trump!

Possibly only one parent would be in work, if they are seriously rich.

politician......... ceo of any business that gets a lot of buzz......... tech companies for example, or businesses that get sued or do a lot of takeovers......... fashion designer......... show business promoter......... television show runner.........
