Common, people in my area pay close to 1m for 3-4k sq ft homes on 2 acres and tear them down and build 7k sq ft. These homes where all built in md 80s so they aren't even that old.

Hi Mr. Misogynist, welcome to the conversation. And you're correct, because MacKenzie Scott received a boatload of money from her husband, that's proof that every other woman did the same.

There's no doubt that many very wealthy women are there because of marriage, divorce or death. It's a patriarchal world. But to insinuate, as you've now done TWICE, that it could be the only reason she's got money... welcome to 1950!

Well, he/she isn't entirely off the mark. When she and Affleck were married, they had a marital home, and when they divorced, she got the house, then sold the house for 32 million.


While she's giving up size and land, compared to her former home, she'll be living in very very tony Brentwood.

She just sold that place for 28mm a few months ago and a the billionaire from Rockstar energy drink "flipped it" for a 15mm profit in about 10 days. Looks like Elin needed a way better realtor!

Uh, what? If you have enough money to pay 7.8 million dollars for a home and then tear it down to build something presumably a lot bigger and/or better... then yeah, you're probably pretty rich. Her net worth is likely somewhere in the $80-$100m range. That qualifies as rich in my book.

In case anyone is wondering who IS the ACTUAL richest woman in the world (cause this thread got me to wondering.)


Francoise Bettencourt Meyers



1. Francoise Bettencourt Meyers. With a total fortune of $71.8 billion, Francoise Bettencourt Meyers becomes the earth's wealthiest woman. Her family holds 33% of L'Oréal stock recently reported to have had marvelous growth within the past decades.
