Money-making does not depend on your gender. Statistics indicate that there are
more male millionaires than females. That is hardly surprising as it is
indicative of a male-dominant world. Females themselves have also held their
own in wealth-creation and accumulation.
Oprah Winfrey was born on January 29, 1954 in the
backwoods of a Mississippi little known town of Kosciusko USA to an unmarried
teen-age mother. She resolved early in
life to work hard and be successful. This mindset lured her into show business.
This is how she became a television talk-show host that has earned her fame and
wealth. Ms. Winfrey worked hard and became the head of many companies under her
HARPO Inc. which employed many people, both male and female. She at some stage
became arguably the most popular talk-show host in the world. By 1993, she was
reported to be earning about $98 million dollars per year. Not bad for a little
black girl born into abject poverty in a race-tainted United States in the
fifties.
These days, you can see multi-millionaire female
stars like the Kardashians, Williams sisters, Jennifer Lopez and many others
whose careers cut across Talk-show hosting, Sports, Music, Business and many
other fields of human endeavor. Women are really making money in this age and
time and that is very good for humanity.
