Oprah Winfrey Comes In At The #2 Spot On Forbes America’s Richest Self-Made Women List

06/02/2016 •

One of America's Richest Self-Made Women is none other than the legendary Media Mogul Oprah Winfey! Lady O landed at the NO.2 spot with $3.1 billion dollars. Such an inspiration.

Oprah Winfrey's magic has rubbed off on Weight Watchers. Since the media mogul bought a 10% stake in the diet empire in October 2015, its stock is up some 90%. The long-reigning queen of daytime TV has also proven she can thrive without a talk show. Her cable network, OWN, delivered its most-watched year in 2015, following four years of double-digit viewership growth, according to Nielsen. Next up: miniseries Queen Sugar, coproduced with Selma collaborator Ava DuVernay, and TV drama Greenleaf, about a Tennessee megachurch. Forbes
