wow? great. seems all the top rich women inherited their husbands or their father's wealth.
kindly, if possible, you could get us a list of those women who have made it to the top rich on their own. it will encourage the young girl child any where in the globe that if you work hard, you can as well make it
It's better to become rich from your own hard works, and I prefer to become rich in faith and good works by sharing that money to hungry poor people, we cannot bring money in our grave, but sharing and helping others? this is a true wealth,
You can bring money into your grave. Just have to have a big plot.
if im a billionaire i would build a housing for the homeless.build a hospital,and sponsors studies for the poor family…life is too short in this world 🌎
Motherly heart Joyce…

HOW GOOD CAN IT BE ? IF YOU ARE DEATH!!
My question is what do they do with all that wealth? One does need oodles of money they can’t spend in their lifetime. They can help eradicate poverty all over the world.
Exactly. That's what I said. They have double digit billions and can't even give a small fraction of that to help homeless ppl. 60 billion dollars!!! You could give 10 million into housing units and still be in the high billions. It's crazy. That money can go probably 5 generations down their line, without running out.
Try to become a billionaire, then you can run your money that way,.
It's really sad when people hear about billionaires and the next thing they think is they can't spend it all, they've to help the poor. A lot of sacrifice, pains and sweat go into making those billions, I understand that some might inherit it but then, I don't think it's quite a easy task to sacrifice so much, go through a lot of pains to get that much, and then give it to the poor, neither you nor those that agree with you at the comment section will do that, will you?
Shut up clown nobody said give it all away. You ain’t worth sh&@
Sooo True!
I totally agree God bless
Amen to that Rosa. I agree wholeheartedly. Giving, makes us richer in our hearts, and having billions could take care of alot of things in this world, like hunger and homelessness, but commercials will ask for donations from poor people, using rich famous celebrities. It's like, YOU, rich person, you're famous, you could probably save a thousand animals, or make a thousand housing units for homeless ppl, but you'd rather hoard ALL that money instead of helping. We're not talking a couple million dollars. These ppl have DOUBLE DIGIT BILLIONS. They could easily give 10 million away, and still be rolling in the billions. It's just so sad and crazy to see.
Lol I love how you assume they give nothing. Every single one of them will have given more to the poor in any given year, than you will in a lifetime. It is exactly this “us vs them” mentality of yours that holds most people back from greatness.
100 % agree
Absolutely you are right Rosa , helping poor people, sharing their feelings and talk with them kind words , this is what true wealth . God bless you Rosa 🙏
I didn't know many of the women billionaires by name except for Walton and Jeff Bezos wife become a billionaire from the divorce settlement. 37 billion for pain and emotional grief..Bettencourt was a the wealthiest and I was expecting Queen Elizabeth to be high on the list.
Agree
I could use a new foundation and kitchen remodel? 🙂. I know of a lot more people who can be helped financially. Could be why my names not listed??? Joking. I'm happy and content
you are absolutely correct. mind Reader
I agree 💯 I'd like to see the top richest women who actually earned their own money not women who inherited it. obviously when u inherit millions or more you have the unlimited funds to invest and buy anything to make more.
how i contact with you

i know many families who need help. Can you do help with those poor women?
Hey Rosa you are absolutely right. And also you can email me on [email protected] And talk to me on my cell number 917353436517
I agree 100 percent. When I read it to my daughter I started realizing it was money handed down. Not from them working hard to get that.
Yes!!!! 👍
absolutely right Charles.. google is quite less acknowledged about self-made and inherited wealth
Gina Rinehart inherited an almost-bankrupt mining company, with a mountain of debt. She turned that into one of the largest in the world, through hard-nosed business skills and hardwork.
Correct, not only that she is very charitable supporting many indigenous foundations And other charities to the tune of millions of dollars
Yang Huiyan. She earned her own. There will probably be more like her in this modern age. A lot of the worlds rich men have also inherited from their fathers or grandfathers y'know i.e Trump. They're rich from birth but these people are far removed from most people's experience, men or women.
Soon to be Taylor Allison Swift.
HAPPY NEW YEAR Francoise Bettencourt Meyers WORLD 🌎 RICHEST WOMAN
sorry, I'm not against one been rich in any way, but my question is that, what of if one is very rich, and does not have Jesus in is life?
For it is written, It is more harder for a rich man to enter heaven than for a camel to enter into the eye of the needle..
AMEN, I AM NOT ANGRY I REJOICE FOR YOU.
SOME I BELIEVE GOD HAS SMILED ON YOU AND PRAYERFULLY I HAVE NO THOUGHT I
JUST WANT YOU TO GIVE GOD THE PRAISE.
ONE DAY I WILL BE NOT RICH BUT MORE IN
THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD.
I always believed in my heart that if God ever blessed me with that kind of money that I would take care of my family first and then I would help so many people who are homeless, hungry, sick or feel hopeless because of their financial situations…remember, god blesses those who bless others!
Always happy. I need to job because of my financial problems.
Saving your soul is your eternal life achievement through lord 🙏 Jesus Christ.
The wealth of this world will not be able to fetch that salvation.
To be on the safe side, for goodness' sake: Worship only ONE GOD ALMIGHTY ALLAAH–and do NOT associate ANY PARTNER WITH HIM–The creator of Heavens and Earth. Jesus, the son of Mary—Peace be upon Him—is only–I use the presentence, for the apparent reason–a Prophet, NOT GOD. Is this too difficult to understand?? Jesus–Peace be upon Him–never told anyone that He is God, the Creator, did He?
Wow…what a wonder.
I wish these prominent women will help schools like our school. It could a big difference for students if they do.
How about adding this to it: Please feed the Orphans?
there are lots of richest women in world but they suffered alot to reach at ths place..
I hope any 1 of these ladies contect to me for my help…
only 2 of these women became billionaires without inheriting the lable from either their father or husband. A couple of them got rich from their divorces. Yes, it's up to these women to keep the company they inherited going either as their former owner did,or improve the company so the net worth
increases. I praise the women who built their company from the ground up and got their net worth from their hard work(along with their employees). I hope these women treat their employees great. Without their employees, I'm quite sure they would not have their net worth as it is.
The hotel is situated in an amazing breathtaking space. It is a must for anyone wanting to be inspired.
girl bye. nobody want ur crusty musty dusty sick hotel
What is the average age of these billionaires?
Bobby you like an old man gtfo
that's a huge amount of money billions of.billions💪💪 as for me iam struggling to buy basic food
yeah I totally get it.
🙏🏽Pray that it turns around for you
If i want to become a millioniar how can i do it
Work hard. Be smart and go to college and start investing or follow your dreams
Just pray to Almighty Allaah, to grant you good health, longevity, happiness, and success, to earn a very clean wealth–that is not tainted–to solve your financial needs, and help feed the orphans.
All of the above .who is the Wealthiest Women not from inheritance of wealth purely.
5. Which is 50%. Almost 5x that of the male percentage.
there's a contradiction here.
how can it be that "Jacqueline Mars: $31.7 billion……. is the 48th richest person in the world."
and Susanne Klatten: "$24.3 billion…….. is the eighth richest woman in the world".?
If Susan's net worth is less than Jacqueline's, then her ranking "in the world" should be lower than 48.
"Richest Person" (that includes both men and women) ranking is different from "Richest Woman" only.
I don't think there's a contradiction. It says that Susanne is the 8th richest WOMAN in the world and 65th richest person overall (which includes males and other females). Therefore, Jacqueline Mars is the 48th richest person overall while Susanne is the 65th.
because you read them wrong, that's why.. lol
sad to say in this modern times still no women made this billions on her own
I have no money, lost my job. Company restructured. I’m homeless now I’m sleeping in my car, had a mini stroke, diabetes. No medical. Even at that I’m richer than many.
Michael
It is good that if 50 of world women,world rich will be half of richest people in the world.

Rihanna is a selfmade billionaire at 34 yrs old
The longest time any individual has been rich is +- 100 years.some people have gone from super wealthy to destitute all in ten years(maybe less).Me, I was born rich in my head. That way my wealth has nothing to do with money.
I know that if I was rich I'd share with the less fortunate.Im retired on Medicare . Would love to work but have a disability. Struggle with buying food and I cringe every time it rain because I have a leaky roof.
I agree with you Sir… seems they just got those easily… though inherited parents work for it hardly for their children… that' the way it goes automatically… fate is fate.. GOD bless you Sir…
