In the old days, it was believed that a real woman is a caring mother, an economic, faithful wife, a responsible housekeeper and nothing more. Modern trends have changed the attitude towards the fairer sex. Today, many successful women, in addition to caring for children and husbands, manage to achieve significant financial success.
Goddesses of financial Olympus
There are far fewer rich women than men. This is primarily due to the fact that ladies, as a rule, have a humanitarian mindset. It is difficult for them to understand the intricacies of financial subtleties.
In addition, they are by nature sensitive, compassionate, vulnerable and unable to play by the rigid rules of big business.
But most of the richest women in the world are not the ones fortunate enough to marry a billionaire, but the ones who have earned that title through their daily hard work.
The list of the wealthiest women is replete with many names. It includes not only American women, but also Russian and Asian ladies.
The most successful ladies in the world
The richest woman in Russia is Olga Zinovieva. Her fortune exceeds several billion dollars. It is impossible to name a specific amount; the press has only rough estimates at its disposal. Olga is considered the most influential lady in the country. She is the first deputy general director of the investment company Interros.
Olga Zinovieva was born in 1971. She graduated from the Faculty of Economics of Moscow State University and, thanks to her intelligence and determination, became the most influential and richest woman in Russia.
The richest woman in the United States is Christy Walton. Her fortune is just over $ 27.9 billion. In 1962, Christie and his brother James created the marketing giant Walmart. In addition, the lady inherited a significant share of the capital investment of her husband, who died in a plane crash in 2005.
Kirsty Bertarelli - tops the list of the richest ladies in England. Her fortune is about 7.4 billion pounds. However, there is no merit of Mrs. Bertarelli herself in such welfare. It's all about a wealthy husband who is among the top ten richest people in Great Britain.
The queen of the real estate market in China is Yajun. Her fortune is $ 4.3 billion. Yajun is the founder of the development firm Longfor. Selling luxury real estate in Beijing and Shanghai, the woman quickly reached the top of the financial Olympus.
In France, for many years, the status of the richest woman has been held by 90-year-old Liliane Bettencourt. Her fortune is more than $ 1 billion. Concern L'Oreal, inherited from her father, is consistently profitable.
Whether they earned these astronomical sums by their own labor or became the owners of the inheritance - it doesn't matter. They have achieved success, and this is the main thing!
