Isn’t Elizabeth Holmes self-made? It sounds like she came from money but her billions are from building a successful company which makes products she designed.
Where did the money go? Testicle reconstruction research?
LiveStrong.org now has an A- rating from Charity Watch. They’ve improved significantly in the past few years.
NB Forbes is usually the go-to for this sort of thing, and their list is quite different and longer (slideshow). I note that Christy Walton and Bettencourt are above Alice.
Also: if you Google Image Search “Jocelyn Wildenstein,” especially while eating, YOU HAVE BEEN FUCKING WARNED!
Googles… born… 1984!? :eek: sob what am I doing with my life? No doubt she had some opportunities, but it doesn’t look like she didn’t earn it.
Margarita Louis-Dreyfus - you may have heard of her cousin-in-law, who stands to inherit tons.
Maria Asuncion Aramburuzabala - I’d marry her, and it’d be fun until I die a horrible cirrhosis-related death from unlimited access to Negra Modelo.
For the record, the origin of Bettencourt’s wealth is hair dye. 
(producing it, not wearing it)
Well, you know what they say. Blondes have more funds.
They are not “mostly” blonde. And of those who are, many are older women. Older people of both sexes have a tendency to lighten their hair.
And Oprah should not get a gold star. Platinum, maybe.
Are you sure it statistically irrelevant?
How about this? Blondes earn 7% more than other women.
Or this? Only 2% of the world population is naturally blonde.
8 out of 10 samples is certainly not conclusive evidence, but when a “natural” distribution would leave you with 0 out of 10, it’s certainly relevant enough to spur further investigation.
Well, women can make themselves blonder quite a bit more easily than men can make themselves taller (which is the corresponding physical marker for higher earnings in men), so score one for the wimminz.
…but 10 out of 10 STILL WON’T LIKE YOU…!
