Meg Whitman, 62 – Est. $3.3B
Meg Whitman’s resumé is equally as impressive as her paycheck, with her personal fortune estimated at $3.3 billion. She started off her career in the ‘70s as a Procter & Gamble employee but her most noteworthy position was with eBay, and she joined the online retail firm in 1998. She managed to raise the company’s revenue from $4 million to $8 billion on her exit. Whitman isn’t done raking in the billions yet and she’s teamed up with Jeffrey Katzenberg to work on the Quibi streaming service set to launch in 2022. Whitman tried her luck in politics when she ran against the former Democratic Governor Jerry Brown for the California gubernatorial seat in 2010 but she lost.
