Nouveau Riche

Filed under: General — admin @ 4:41 pm

Nouveau Riche in french means New Rich. People who interited wealth that wasn’t there when they were born, it also means rags to riches. Oprah winfrey is a good example of rags to riches. J.K.Rowling is a perfect example of this day’s Nouveau Riche or rags to riches who is worth a billion dollars now. An idea, Harry potter, a story that made use of all the magic tales and novels that have been ever written and fused everything available into a production that the billions around the world enjoyed it. That’s a billion dollar idea that makes her the Nouveau Riche!

This article about billionaires during 1991 -> http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/1991/09/09/75462/index.htm reveals information on many billionaires who went from rags to the riches. Not all of them, but more than a handfull of them. It’s a good to browse around when you are kind of wanting an inspiring moment. Short biographies of great people like Queen Elizabeth, warren buffet, bill gates, carlos slim helu, paul allen, lakshmi mittal, etc… one by one on no order is a nice read. The article is not concise due to its nature, also at the same time it’s kind of dumped on, without images but it’s still worth it.
