The 10 Richest Women in The World
From L'Oreal cosmetics heiresses and mining entrepreneurs, to BMW executives and pharmaceutical moguls, inherited wealth and self-made billions rule the roost.

Women empowerment has certainly made it possible for some high-profile female entrepreneurs to leave their mark on Forbes’ richest list...and enjoy life so many of us would dream of!

In fact, these women are the 1% of the 1%; amassing a fortune so expansive that they can basically blow a billion dollars without breaking a sweat.

With that being said, let’s take a look at 10 of the richest women in the world in 2021!
10. Australia: Gina Rinehart—net worth— $13.1 billion



At number 10, we have a savvy female entrepreneur from the land down under who made a massive fortune in Australian mining.

Which makes a lot of sense because Australia is a land of plentiful; both in minerals...oh and dangerous animals that just want to make a meal out of you!

Gina Rinehart, who is 66 years of age, is the daughter of iron-ore explorer Lang Hancock.

She has been the chairperson of mineral extracting company Hancock Prospecting Group since 1992 when she inherited a 76.6% share of the business upon her father's death.

In the 2010s, Gina expanded the company into Television, newspaper, and agriculture, and as of 2020 is the richest person in Australia.

With a net worth of $13.1 billion, she certainly lives a luxurious lifestyle that very few of us get to experience!!
9. China: Zhong Huijuan— net worth—$14.6 billion




How did this Chemistry teacher move from earning a basic government teacher’s salary in China to becoming the richest woman in the country?

Well, Zhong Huijuan, 59, founded the drug-making group Hansoh Pharmaceutical in 1995.
And through a lot of work and commitment, she basically built it from nothing to one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world.

The company, which specializes in the production of cancer, anti-diabetic, psychoactive, and other drugs rose 10% in stocks from January to March 2020 when COVID-19 was most active in China.

And there’s no denying that COVID-19 has been particularly “positive” for owners of pharmaceutical companies.

Nevertheless, the former chemistry teacher is the richest self-made woman in the whole of Asia. She is certainly an inspiration to many women around the world!

8. USA: Laurene Powell Jobs—net worth—$16.4 billion




Laurene, 56, is the widow of Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs.

In 1997, she co-founded and became president of College Track, a foundation that helps prepare disadvantaged kids for college, and since 2016 has chaired Emerson Collective, a philanthropic and investment company that advocates for social reform in the United States.

When Steve Jobs died in 2011, Laurene inherited a 7.3% stake in Disney— which is worth an estimated $11.1 billion—and 38.5 million shares in Apple.

And it’s safe to say that she lives a very comfortable lifestyle with all the stakes that she owns.
7. Germany: Susanne Klatten—net worth—$16.8 billion



Susanne Klatten, 58, is the heir to the German carmaker, BMW. And as one of the largest automobile makers in the world, BMW has been around the block since 1917 producing some of the most elite luxury vehicles in the market.

Due to coronavirus and the rapid downturn in the demand for new cars, her net worth has been cut by 20% in 2020.

Nevertheless, she is still one of the richest women in the world mainly because BMW is an international company, as well as the fact that she has handsome and lucrative investments in other ventures as well.

You know what they say; don’t put all your eggs in one basket!!

In fact, Susanne is also the sole owner of a pharmaceutical company
