Nice touch to include self-made on the graph when it fits none of them.
It's so perfectly passive-aggressive.
Gotta love the completely irrelevant "pledged to give away wealth" orange category.
The feminists that come out screeching “she earned it is hilarious” they can literally only point to her “stock ownership” of stocks purchased by…. Jeff Bezos. Now she magically is already divorced again but her public school teacher husband ain’t getting no alimony.
I hate to do the TO BE FAIRRRR thing, but even though it didn't land her under "richest woman in the world" wasn't she doing okay with her own business venture?
I mean, not as good as his bald headed cuck of an ex husband but still.
Her career was “novelist”, failed “novelist” would be the more apt description
I think she was there at the beginning of Amazon, and supporting that was the smartest thing she could be doing. It paid off, and while she seems like a total tool, it is sour grapes here to say that she inherited it or even won it in a divorce settlement when it was hers to begin with. As far as "earned." IDK. Like I said, she did the smartest thing in her own situation. You can make up your own mind.
I draw a distinction because there are situations where in fact a woman marries a man, divorces, and makes off with money that he had coming in. But that's not the case with Bezos. If you actually believe in a trad lifestyle, which I do, then (well you don't get divorced but...) everything that a couple earns while married belongs to both of them. That's how a family works.
was she popping out his kids and being full time stay at home mom taking care of the family? if not, what did she do to earn that money other than living under the same roof?
Probably doing much of the operating and day-to-day stuff. When you’re a start up you kinda fly by the seat of your pants.
They had three biological children together, and one adopted one. I can't say I know anything else about their domestic life, though. I just got this off of Wikipedia.
worked at Amazon, I heard
Do they have kids? IDK
Huh, most of her fortune is literally from her divorce settlement though.
Any stock she bought or was given earlier on she still had but that wouldn't put her in the top 10. She also kept her own income in addition to that.
Oh ok, I don't believe that.
If you have division of labor within a family, it doesn't make sense to say that one person owns certain fruits. I mean are you going to say the woman owns the kids because she takes care of them? The house? Like I said, you're not supposed to get divorced, but the family does share property.
And by that they mean launder it back through controlled charities and book deals.
Mostly virtue signaling. They will set their kids up nicely, evading taxes as much as possible. Spend all the money they want. And then if they have more than that let other people spend it that they control. If they didn't, it would just be some money manager controlling it for them.
It would be hilarious if anyone just cut a check to every American for their share of his net worth, though. I imagine they would be popular even if it's like $4 a person.
Nice little deflection there. That category is completely different than the others (how they got their money). What they "say" they'll do with it has nothing to do with that.
She'll spend nearly all of it until she's on her very death bed, and then she'll donate the last 100 dollars to charity.
And by "charity" it'll be some feminist grift operation
Hell, going by the wording of the phrase, it doesn't even specify her wealth... actually, that's accidentally based.
Elizabeth Anne Holmes
By 2015, Forbes had named Holmes the youngest and wealthiest self-made female billionaire in America on the basis of a $9-billion valuation of her company.[5] In the following year, as revelations of potential fraud about Theranos's claims began to surface, Forbes revised its estimate of Holmes's net worth to zero.
In November 2022, she was sentenced to serve 11+1⁄4 years in prison.
Kek. There's also the "Cryptoqueen" who invented a bitcoin knockoff and ran off with all the money. Speaking of female crypto hoaxers, don't forget Mrs FTX!
Goddamnit now I need to replace my eyeballs yet again XD
The AMD CEO?
Does the oldest profession not count as earnings?
I will say in these women's defense. "Self-made" isn't something that can be said for a lot of guys throughout history either. Throughout history, the family you were born to was the best indicator of your future success. It still is that way today, though not as extreme. Even today though, many "self-made" guys are anything but self-made yet they try really hard to create an image of being "self-made".
Lastly, I think we need to give credit where credit is due. These women used their vaginas to get wealthy by exploiting men. It worked. Now they are wealthy. That to me is "self-made". Just not self-made by creating anything of value. It's more parasitic but these parasites still did it themselves and beat out other competing parasites.
Let's not man. I don't even want to give these cunts a modicum of respect for just being lucky enough to be a leech. Blame the women for thinking it's fine to do this. Blame the men for having no taste in the bitches they pick.
Pretty sure you are replying to a bot. Whoever is running it was kind enough to make it obvious by their choice of username, but the way it's replies are phrased, including the overly pedantic use of "good grammar" is telling as well.
But why would I blame a leech for being good at its job? You walk into a swamp and then walk out of a swamp. You're covered in leeches. Do you try to tell the leeches to stop being leeches? You can't just tell women to stop doing what they're literally programmed to do. That is the true face of women. It is what they are. You might have this Cinderella idea that leeches are actually these beautiful creatures that swim by your side and help to guide you out of the swamp and protect you from other nasty swamp creatures but that's not what they are. They are leeches that are programmed to latch into you and suck your blood. No amount of telling women to be different will change her nature.
I can look at a leech and appreciate that this leech might be better than other leeches. Wow, look at how much blood that leech sucked. It's massive. That's a fucking crazy good leech. No different than looking at women and going wow that woman is better at being a woman than other women, which means using her vagina to exploit a man to enhance her wealth and power.
If you want women to be something they aren't then you need to force women to be what you want them to be. Positive reinforcement for different behaviors and simply telling them to be different won't work. You have to literally use force. Women respond far more to punishments than they do rewards. Trying the appeasement strategy with women just ends up with you losing all your blood as they suck you completely dry and yet still don't give you what you want. Want leeches to stop sucking your blood? Grab them before they have a chance to latch on. Trap them in a cage. Use your superior power over them to literally prevent them from doing what they are programmed to do. Then you can do whatever you want with the leeches. That's what you need to do with women also.
If you have to threaten them so they'll be good people, why build anything with them?
It's like having a pet tiger, eventually it'll rip you to pieces.
Why do men have pet tigers? It's just a high-risk, high-reward game and some men like that. Probably not Jews though. Jewish men are pretty risk adverse... It's probably just more an Aryan thing given that Aryans promoted the concept of glory and living full lives in a short time rather then looking for ways to live a mundane risk-free life as long as possible.
If women truly had 0 value, why would the Taliban take female sex slaves? Shouldn't the Taliban just kill the women so they aren't a liability?
You say, women are like pet tigers. Okay, but what about tigers at the zoo? How many people die from tigers? It's like <1 a year? Is the gain from the risk worth it? Many men think so.
Yes, I wouldn't want to be near a wild tiger but with the right safeguards in place to control the tiger, the risk can be worth the reward. The same holds true for women. Cage women and force them to submit to men and despite their nature, they still can be worth the risk.
Simp Ai lmao
But how many billionaires had children who went on to earn their own billions through work unrelated to the family business?
I know being born to wealthy parents makes you more likely to earn decent money, but to become a billionaire? Not sure about that.
It's far more feasible to become a billionaire when you start as a millionaire than it is to become a millionaire when you start from nothing.
Bill Gates' father was a rich Seattle attorney. That enabled him to go to a private prep school that was the only one in town with a computer, and be free to drop oit of Harvard and pursue his business dreams without having to worry about being homeless or starving to death. To be sure, someone of lesser talent might have ended up living in his parents basement, but he started with a huge leg up.
It's all about options. There are doors that are opened to you when you have successful parents, and when you go to the right schools, and when you know the right people that are not opened to everyone else.
There were 735 billionaires in the United States in 2022 compared to 25,000,000 millionaires so I'm not sure this is true.
But I could be missing something.
Mackenzie Bezos sort of earned it - she invested in Amazon early alongside of Jeff and worked in the business up until their divorce. So you can't say she did nothing.
Duh.
Most people aren't self-made billionaires. And of everyone that is self-made-wealthy, women will be the least likely group among them, because they are feminine.
Are all these by marriage/divorce? Or are there any here who truly inherited their wealth from an older family member.
Read one like this year's ago. Some salon 'top ten women that prove women are women's womens women of woman hood" or some babble
The only exception was one woman whos method of earning wasn't directly stated anywhere in her section. I wonder if they had noticed the pattern
oh noo is it another freedomofchoice-esque gimmick account?
