Even official statistics claiming that girls are paid half as much as men can not prevent the most successful of them from earning a million, and not one!
Since women won equality with men, they have gained the opportunity to receive wages and independently regulate their income.
1. Network consultant of cosmetic brand
Each cosmetic company, working by direct sales, exploits a woman's desire to become rich and successful. For years, this business strategy has attracted women who do not have seed money and influential friends. The Board of Directors of the mass-market brand Avon since 1999 is headed by a woman who started her career as an ordinary distributor of cosmetics. Her name is Andrea Jung: the leader is considered an influential icon of style, supporting the face of the brand, keeping pace with the times.
2. Fashion designer
Not only the world of beauty, but also the fashion industry give the opportunity to realize their ambitions to the female sex. Miuccia Prada, Diana von Furstenberg, Bella Potemkina, Stella McCartney, Jeanne Laven - that's just a small list of successful founders of their own brands. Pioneer in the fashion world was Coco Chanel, who created a huge industry, which includes the production of clothing, luxury cosmetics and perfumes.
3. Actress
Emma Stone earned last year 26 million dollars and "Oscar" in the treasury of their own awards. Work on the set brought Jennifer Aniston and Jennifer Lawrence for 24 million dollars for 12 months. Melissa McCarthy and Mila Kunis are also able to earn 15-18 million dollars per year. The only drawback of work in this area can be considered a high competition: it is incredibly difficult to keep among the popular actresses. Every celebrity has to spend it for the sake of PR agents, stylists and personal assistants.
4. The singer
Another creative profession that allows a woman to earn a million and more than one: country performer Taylor Swift, for example, earns in the year 170-200 million dollars, depending on the tour schedule. Of course, she and other singers have to sacrifice their personal lives and be ready to overcome difficulties of all sorts: producers who dream of dragging voiceless beauties on the bed are not so few.
5. The author of cookbooks
76-year-old Martha Stewart with 30 years earns advice on housekeeping. She became famous for books on art, which today would be called a time management for housewives. But the real popularity of it brought the release of books with culinary recipes. Martha was not at a loss and at the peak of her fame she created her own publishing agency, which controls printed products, radio programs and Internet sites. Holding Martha was officially listed as a billionaire on the stock exchange in New York.
6. Writer or director
Professions that remain invisible to movie theater visitors can bring no less income than the main roles, the performers of which receive all the laurels on the red carpet. A striking example of this is Shonda Rhimes, the creator and the only scriptwriter of the acclaimed American series "The Anatomy of Passion". Shonda has already been nominated for Emmy thrice and even won the Golden Globe. Earned on Anatomy, she invested in production of two more series: "Scandal" and "How to avoid punishment for murder."
7. Counsel
Amal Alamuddin managed to realize herself as a mother, the wife of Hollywood actor George Clooney and a lawyer for international human rights protection. She graduated from Oxford University and New York College. Amal knew how to earn millions in the dull profession of a lawyer: she trained at the UN, worked as a legal advisor for Yugoslavia and a lawyer for such persons as Julian Assange and Yulia Tymoshenko. Becoming a mother, Amal does not think to give up work: she is still actively making a career and increasing her fortune.
8. Pharmacist
The youngest billionaire woman in the world was Elizabeth Holmes, who is called "Steve Jobs in a skirt." She works in the Silicon Valley to create the world's cheapest technology of blood sampling for analysis. The goal of her life, she believes, is not the increase in the profits of the farm company Theranos founded by her, but the service to humanity.
"When the moment comes, and you understand why you were born for the world, you simply start doing what you must."
So Elizabeth comments on his choice of specialty.
9. Writer
The most recognizable and successful writer in the world is a woman - Joan Rowling, who gave the world "Harry Potter". She earns billions, but continues to be listed in millionaires, simply because she spends most of her income on charity. She founded her own organization for helping children from problem families called Lumos (in honor of the spell from the books about the young wizard).
10. Journalist
Ambitious presidential candidate Ksenia Sobchak and glamorous it-girl Miroslava Duma became recognizable and successful with the help of their belonging to the world of journalism. Girls subtly feel the trends, understand the actual topics and know everything about the fashion business, and therefore their publications are very popular among readers. Awareness of Xenia or Miroslava can envy some actresses and TV hosts.
