Motivation Monday: The Richest Person in the World Soon To Be A She!

Yes, there should be more women on the Rich List, and yes, Georgina “Gina” Rinehart, the woman in question is an heiress (who more than likely works hard and shrewdly to keep that money growing) but so what. We’ll all give a private giggle and a smirk if the richest person in the world is a woman. How fantastic! And about time.

I don’t think ‘being richest’ is really the greatest goal one can have and I wouldn’t recommend that being your sole driving force. Yes we should achieve and have ample financial means for freedom, access, pleasure, and room to give to others, and yes we should be paid for our work at full market value, but the one with the most toys doesn’t win. Nothing is forever. And money can’t buy you love. But it’s pretty cool all the same after years of seeing men that look like this on the list

Yes, I left the stockphoto logo there on purpose.

Pretty…pretty…pretty… cool.
