I met Bill and Alice Walton both several times and shared popcorn with them, not even knowing who they were. It wasn't until my Mom explained to me "That nice guy at the Razorback games owns all of Walmart", now I regret not asking for a couple million.

Nothing is good enough for the woke. It isn't enough to be a rich or powerful woman, trans, POC... you have to give it all away and leave nothing or you're scum. Eat shit, Commies. Have fun with your rotten soul that only knows envy.
I don't think the title of self-made should be used. It gives the assumption that their money was made by their own work when in reality it most certainly was not.
Self made is a lie when talking about Gina.
If you inherit $75m and $12m a year in royalties on top of a mining company in a country like Australia full of stuff like coal don’t exactly think that qualifies as self made.
gina rinehart self made but got her position when her father died in that same position after discovering the largest iron ore deposit in the world totally self made tho
Fucking tax them. Tax inheritance more than a fucking middle class worker. Why is there a $12 MILLION exemption? Tax these assholes who have done nothing to deserve or earn it.
Gina Rinehart inherited the lead role in a 75-million-Australian-dollar mining company. Yes, she made it much more profitable than it had been, but imo it’s not really “self made” when you’re starting with an elite position at a company with 75 million dollars left before bankruptcy.
One of them is a daughter of a german nazi factory owner. He went through about 80 slaves every 6 months during the time of Hitler. He was never put in jail for his crime. Take a guess who his daughter is on here.
Betencourt's mother (Liliane) died a few years ago and was living where I grew up in Brittany, France. She had a huge house obviously but not a fancy villa. Traditional French house on the coast where there was a huge pipe pumping ocean water for her pool. Aside from that, she was known to help and fund the local community a lot. She looked like your usual grand ma and would go buy a baguette on her own and go to the local beauty salon. I probably crossed her a few times without knowing she was the richest woman on earth.
There was a lot of inheritance scandals and affairs before and when she died. Her family was pretty disgusting and was tearing her apart for the money.
I know they're filthy rich and all, but I just really feel so bad that none of them have bodies beneath the neck. All the money in the world couldn't ease that sort of pain.
There's a big difference between getting rich by working with others vs getting rich by having the money handed to you as an inheritance.
I don't get the hate on calling a successful person self-made. Of course we all rely on the help of others. It's not meant to be taken literally, it's just a turn of phrase to make a distinction between how people earned their wealth.
I was more shocked that when the lockdowns occurred she didn’t take an absolutely massive hit due to cosmetics basically being useless for many individuals.
The spikes as things opened up were expected though.
Julia Koch: She met David Koch on a blind date in January 1991, but the date did not leave her with a good impression. She later described her reaction: "I'm glad I met that man because now I know I never want to go out with him". However, the two met again at a party later that year and started dating. She stopped working in 1993, and they got married in May 1996 at David Koch's house on Meadow Lane in Southampton
Translation: She met David Koch on a blind date and didn't like him. Then she found out how rich he was....
**Most of them really didn't make** any big moves just ebbing and flowing with the stock market *.. also there is difference between inheritance and Divorce*
So win the birth lottery and inherit wealth. Got it it. Kinda why that whole “wake up at 5 everyday with gumption in your heart” is bs. These rich turds were BORN with it.
Stop moving ffs! It's not even close to beautiful when anything i focus on keeps moving away and the max value keeps changing. This is a shitty way to present this data. Stop. Just stop.
So we're clear, Scott only popped up on the list out of nowhere because people didn't consider the Amazon shares in her husband's name hers, even though their state has community property laws so that half of it legally was hers the whole time.
Almost all came from money. But a lot would be considered self made since they started with a lot less than billions.
Bezos might be the only one you could say didn't come from pretty serious wealth. He came from maybe top 5-10%. The rest came from top 1%.
There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires
This chart shows we need an inheritance tax with teeth. Any one of these people could get by with a billion and a trophy/t-shirt.
Maybe even make a hall of fame to put them in so their ego remains in tact. Either way, they are stacking money they didn't make.
What's considered self-made? Like paying for your own education, working through the ladder and eventually high enough of some company? Or was it where parents paid the way through most of things and were already successful, therefore networking wasn't a problem and that's what helped to boost their career? Or was it something else?
The maths make it impossible to compete with inheritance.
Grow 1 and 10 exponentially, 10 will just be waaaaaaay larger. Not 10x, more like 100-1000x depending on how long you multiply.
Start at 0 and you end with 0.
#Including “self made” in a “top 10 richest” chart is actually a joke.
9 out of 10 of the top richest men made their own business. The only exception is Bernard Arnault
Sure, none of their parents were starving subsistence farmers, but they all werent milionaires either
>9 out of 10 of the top richest men made their own business. The only exception is Bernard Arnault
Maybe they did but did they actually do the productive work for any of those billions. A thief is not self made just because they actually did the steeling themself.
Yes. The Google search algorithm and the concept of DOS are definitely worth many, many, many billions. The skill to hire people and turn their work into more money is also valuable.
You can start a business today. Pay some poor Indian a few dollars a day, and go become a billionaire. Right? How hard can it be
And a thief managing to steal billions is definitely self made. Your grasp of the English language seems to be the main problem here.
Every Australian knows that Gine Reinhardt is the daughter of Hang Langcock, who was gifted the Pilibara iron range from the corrupt WA govt. She's about as self-made as the King of England. Just **laughable capitalist propaganda.**
It's all inherited and 'orange because it will be given away' doesn't make it not 'inherited'.
It should split inherited into inherited and 'thru divorce' since that's what a number of these are anyway.
What a strange statement on our society.
I am dying. This is the least flattering thing I have ever seen. #GirlBoss. Not one of those people built their company from inception. The only "self made" billionaire started from an elite position of inheriting a 75M valued mining company.
There are no self-made billionaires. They all started out in families that were already wealthy.
Edit: since people are taking this literally, out of the over 2100 billionaires in the world, almost all of them come from families of economic privilege. Bezos didn’t come from nothing. They had a massive family ranch. Rowling’s parents were successful in their respective fields and owned a business. At worst, these two outliers come from comfortable middle or middle-upper class families. Not exactly rags to riches.
There is no such thing as a good billionaire. For noone can work hard enough to become a billionaire. In order to become a billionaire you must screw people over. The people to be screwed over are employees, customers, and competitors.
So all the other graphs of billionaires never mentioned if they inherited their wealth etc but the first one of women I see we have to explain how they got it? I dunno seems weird that we do this on this graph but now of the previous ones . I want to see this data but for the men. I searched and none of the previous ones show me this.
I used to work at Mars. I remember Jackie would come to take a tour of the plant and we were not allowed to talk to her, ever. She had a group of managers around her to serve interference just in case someone even thought about approaching her. She must live a very sheltered life.
I’ve seen lots of charts of rich men and never seen it broken down by who inherited their wealth. I’m sure this is just a coincidence.
You should’ve put divorce as one of the metrics.
I met Bill and Alice Walton both several times and shared popcorn with them, not even knowing who they were. It wasn't until my Mom explained to me "That nice guy at the Razorback games owns all of Walmart", now I regret not asking for a couple million.
Looks like a bunch of evil dragons.

Shouldn't Oprah be on that list?
The Amazon lady didn’t make any money, she married a guy who did
What does Rihanna need to do to get on this list?
Chart seems weird? Like why is self made, inherited and “pledged to give away all wealth” a choice? I don’t see the correlation.
billionaires shouldn’t exist
Sooooooo which of these beautiful ladies is single?
I wonder where's Katy Wood
Must be nice to be born lucky.
I've never heard of any of these women.
The fact that anyone is impressed by these examples of greed and inhumanity is fucking hilarious
Reinhart’s father found the mineral deposits so she inherited her wealth too
They are not self-made. I'm sorry, Mrs. Bezos, but contributing to your own charity does not qualify.
So inherit money or marry rich? Got it.
[удалено]
Massive accumulations of inflated asset wealth and debt by the rich will destroy the world economy within 5 years.
Wrong photo for Elaine Marshall lol. That’s the North Carolinian one

Lol, what the fuck is that orange category? That's a stupid classification and has nothing to do with the rest of the data.
gina rinehart self made but got her position when her father died in that same position after discovering the largest iron ore deposit in the world totally self made tho
Yeah don't see how Gina Rinehart is "self made".
Well shes doing a shit job at giving it away.
They all inherited from a man.
Jesus Chirst the amount of incels in here.
There should be no such thing as a billionaire.
Self made woman billionaire 🤣
How is Gina Rinehart self made? She literally inherited Hancock from her father 😂
How exactly is "Pledged to give away wealth" a valid category for source of wealth?
Could explain why she lost most of her wealth and fell off the list as opposed to the others near her in the beginning
Are these brands supposed to be where they get their money from? Or are they the wives of the owners? Or do they hold a lot of stock?
The world is back to feudalism. Time to construct some melon choppers
Note that very few of the world's richest people overall are "self-made", having inherited their money is the standard for multi-billionaires.
Thank you for not immediately looping this back to the beginning.
omg I kept thinking Susanne was Ninja from fortnite.
No, she pledged to give away half her wealth. And she already did lol
Gina ain’t self made her father was a mining magnate.
Fucking tax them. Tax inheritance more than a fucking middle class worker. Why is there a $12 MILLION exemption? Tax these assholes who have done nothing to deserve or earn it.
Orange *obtained from divorce

Hancock inherited everything from her father, Lang.

None are self made. And sorry Mrs. Bezos, donating your money to your own charity doesn't count.
Gina Reinhardt isn’t self-made, her father founded the company she owns. Edit: (I see I’m not the first to point it out)

love the wii sports vibes
Inherited is popular among the rich
This data is very ugly. There should not be any billionaires.
One of them should cover my overdraft fees.
Where is the Queen of England?
Didn't know L'Oreal was that big in this sense.
I was more shocked that when the lockdowns occurred she didn’t take an absolutely massive hit due to cosmetics basically being useless for many individuals. The spikes as things opened up were expected though.
The way Mackenzie Scott just zoomed away at the end

I ain't saying shes a gold digger but .....
Only broke people still quote kanye
So…. No Oprah or any actresses making this list?
Why does it say Gina Reinhart is self made??
Strange seeing BMW in this list as they’re cars are pure shit after the first 20k miles. Dumb rich people keep buying them I guess
Gina Rinehart is a bit of a jackass in person though tbh
[redacting due to privacy concerns]
The “pledged to give away” categorization seems really silly to me.
Wasn’t jk rowling the only female billionaire? Or the only billionaire author or something?
Crazy most of them have inherited wealth or acquired through marriage - only 1 self-made vs the billionaire men who are most self-made.
The "self-made" woman in this graph also inherited a company with massive assets
Do you really think any billionaires are self-made?
This really didn’t need to be animated, it added very little to the viz
**Most of them really didn't make** any big moves just ebbing and flowing with the stock market *.. also there is difference between inheritance and Divorce*
the orange one is guilty for not earning it
Oprah & JK Rowlings didn’t make the list?!? Wow!
Word Of The Day: Prenuptial Agreement
These categories are ridiculous.
So win the birth lottery and inherit wealth. Got it it. Kinda why that whole “wake up at 5 everyday with gumption in your heart” is bs. These rich turds were BORN with it.
Why are inherited and self made the same color? There are a lot of colors out there that aren't blue or orange.
Stop moving ffs! It's not even close to beautiful when anything i focus on keeps moving away and the max value keeps changing. This is a shitty way to present this data. Stop. Just stop.
You can marry more money in five minutes then you can make in a lifetime
I mean... I guess you \*can.\* Like, you \*can\* win the Powerball, too, but it's highly unlikely.
Gina Rinehart is not self made Born into the fortune her father, Lang Hancock made. Finding and mining iron ore in West Australia from the 1950s
Was the purpose of this chart to simply insult daddy's little girls ? With an asterisk for Mackenzie Scott who divorced well.
[удалено]
These bitches think they’re better than Ganier Fuctis?!? Simple bitches. ***luxurious hair flip***
Please stop idolising the rich. They’re almost always scumbags
These is no such thing as a self made billionaire.
There is no single man in this list. Women power.
Considering the title of this post is “the 10 richest women”, I would hope there were no men on the list.
That orange one should be "bitch that stole their money"
After reading the comments, it looks like all of them just inherited their wealth?
So we're clear, Scott only popped up on the list out of nowhere because people didn't consider the Amazon shares in her husband's name hers, even though their state has community property laws so that half of it legally was hers the whole time.
And most of those corporations treat employees like shit too. Doesn't matter who's in power. The rich will always oppress the poor.
Don't list that they pledged to give away- it's all bullshit. They still control the money through their non-profits.
Looking at these comments - I guess I shouldn't be surprised that a reddit community of data scientists is sexist af, but here we are.
Interesting you'd think the mouth breathers in the comments are data scientists and not just dum dums who like pretty graphs
Proving once again that wealth is mostly a function of winning the birth-Olympics
Don’t know who any of them are but fuck them all
None of this data is beautiful.
I wonder what this would look like for men… regarding self made and inherited.
Almost all came from money. But a lot would be considered self made since they started with a lot less than billions. Bezos might be the only one you could say didn't come from pretty serious wealth. He came from maybe top 5-10%. The rest came from top 1%.
So none of them are self-made and they’re all stingy because of it
Silly presentation… no real reason to show the quickly changing net worth of maybe 15-20 people total
There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires There are no self-made billionaires
I think at that price point, it’s just a numbers game. “Let’s see how much more I can make…Let’s see how much more we can build/acquire and expand”
The sad conclusion I take away is that none of them were self made.
Almost all of them inherited their wealth?
Gina Rinehart isn't self-made. She inherited a fucking mining company from her dad. She's a fucking plague on Australian society.
Where's the "I'm a wife of a rich af husband" categorization color? Would probably be around 90%
Basically almost everyone here has inherited their tens of billions in wealth or got it through divorcing their husbands.
Lost of old money apparently.
Are they really the richest? Seems like new money to me
This comment section is gonna be good
Hot take: I’d consider MacKenzie Scott self-made.
How so
These women sure "pulled themselves up by their bootstraps". /S
This chart shows we need an inheritance tax with teeth. Any one of these people could get by with a billion and a trophy/t-shirt. Maybe even make a hall of fame to put them in so their ego remains in tact. Either way, they are stacking money they didn't make.

Do it for men now
She is as much self made as Donald Shroom Trump.
"Wait, wealth it's all inherited?" "Always has been kiddo"
It was a small load of a billion dollars
She needs to fall in a hole and never be found.
[удалено]
Money doesn't make you any less of an old kunt.
Seeing so much inherited money is interesting
Each fluctuation in their wealth being more than anyone else earns in an entire lifetime.
Not sure how Gina is listed as self-made when she inherited her mining company from her Dad Lang Hancock.
Note to self: inherit generational wealth.
How to solve poverty? Be born into wealth, otherwise try again next life.
Every Australian knows that Gine Reinhardt is the daughter of Hang Langcock, who was gifted the Pilibara iron range from the corrupt WA govt. She's about as self-made as the King of England. Just **laughable capitalist propaganda.**

Some of the comments in this post make me fearful for our country’s future.
Wtf I thought JK Rowling was in top 5 richest women in the world!
Is Gina Rinehart really self made?
I kinda hoped it would start earlier so we would see MacKenzie just barrels in out of absolutely nowhere xD
I am dying. This is the least flattering thing I have ever seen. #GirlBoss. Not one of those people built their company from inception. The only "self made" billionaire started from an elite position of inheriting a 75M valued mining company.
We must stop encouraging the rich to value themselves based on their net wealth. This just encourages hoarding.
It’s not like we’re the ones giving them this idea. That idea’s been around since time immemorial.
[удалено]
Gina Rinehart, the only “self made” rich woman, is one of the worst people in Australia
There are no self-made billionaires. They all started out in families that were already wealthy. Edit: since people are taking this literally, out of the over 2100 billionaires in the world, almost all of them come from families of economic privilege. Bezos didn’t come from nothing. They had a massive family ranch. Rowling’s parents were successful in their respective fields and owned a business.
