12 women who are married to the world’s richest men

The gap between the very rich and the merely rich people in the society and the world at large is getting bigger as fortunes rise to new heights. It is worth noting that some of the richest people control a larger portion of the world’s economy exceeding the GDP of some countries e.g. Mexico.

A bigger percentage of the world’s billionaires were not born on a silver spoon. More than two-thirds are self-made having developed some of the world’s most powerful companies like Google, Amazon, Nike. However, some have inherited from their parents or spouses and maintained the legacy.

Luckily, some women have been lucky enough to be associated with the men billionaires through marriage institution. And people often think that the wives of billionaires are all pampered supermodels who spend their day going back and forth between the hairdressers and the next party.
