Here is the richest self-made woman in Florida! I love articles like this because it makes me feel so empowered. Now I wont tell you who that woman is yet, Just know she is from Fort Lauderdale. Fort Lauderdale is about 4 hours from where I live in St. Petersburg.

Self-Made Woman

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, Self-made means having achieved success or prominence by one’s own efforts. So all the women on this list have created businesses which have made them a lot of money.

Forbes created this list of the richest self-made women in America. How did these women obtain their money? According to the Forbes website, these 100 women have obtained their wealth writing books, selling beauty products, investing in the biometrics field and more!  All together the women on this list are worth $124B, and that is up 12% from 2022!

Who is the richest self-made woman in America?

Building supply distributor Diane Hendricks! She remains number one for the 5th year in a row. She has a net worth of $15B. If you don’t know what she does, she is the chair of ABC supply. ABC supply is one of the largest wholesale distributors of roofing, siding and windows in America.

Hendricks cofounded the business with her late husband, Ken. Now before she met her husband Ken she was selling custom homes for a builder. So she was making money before she even got into her relationship.

Do Articles like this motivate you?

It motivates me. I don’t have aspirations to be rich, but successful! If the riches come behind it, I would love that to! I want to start a business, but don’t quite have the right idea yet. If you have dreams of having a successful business, keep gong! Don’t stop and I hope you become rich! I hope we all do.
