Same could be said about Bill Gates. I don't think you lot realise how big passing the billion mark is. That is a level that very very few people on the planet reach, once you get into that realm, you're untouchable. Google how many billionaires go to jail, and the ones that do barely do a fraction of the time.Eh...Oprah is not really respected like that.
She's just an entertainer.
Plus, she's more focused with being in front of the camera than actual business these days.
You think a billionaire has no power. This is hilarious.

They have Oprah in the Mammy role in that pic. Quite obvious and disgusting.

I didn't say she was a scientist, I said she was a billionaire, because she is. She is worth 3 billion. How many glorified tv hosts are billionaires? She's the third richest self made woman in America. Not elite?Bill Gates has done infinitely more for the world than Oprah.
Oprah's net worth is derived from being on TV during prime time.
She's not some elite mind or something.
She's a well paid TV host and actress.
Look, I like her and all and I'm glad for what she represents...but she's not some elite billionaire. She's not of the caliber of her peers.

You think a billionaire has no power. This is hilarious.
edit: She's now worth 3 billion.![]()
Her. She bought a tv station (much like buying professional teams, something only a very small portion of rich people can do). Gave out hundreds of scholarships and built a state of the art school in S.A. She's been considered the most powerful woman in the world numerous times. Considered the most generous billionaire numerous times, raised over a half a billion for Africa. You have never seen her in any compromising position, ever.Who’s the last black billionaire to flex their power?

She is not a rich woman, she is a wealthy woman. Billionaires are practically above the law. They can move mountains, literally. She could pay for a mountain to be blown up and removed.

Money isn't everything.I didn't say she was a scientist, I said she was a billionaire, because she is. She is worth 3 billion. How many glorified tv hosts are billionaires? She's the third richest self made woman in America. Not elite?![]()
Correct.So as a black woman you think oprah has the pull to move congress reps and is above any system? Based solely off her wealth.
As they say, money is power. The more you have, the more powerful you are. and Billionaires are at the top of that pyramid.Power to influence - Many billionaires use their money to influence the govt and policy makers in their favor with donations, campaign contributions, lobbying and such. For example Casino Magnet Sheldon Adelson & Industrialists Koch brothers in America spend tons on presidential/gubernatorial candidates and such
Black American? This is who I respect.Who’s the last black billionaire to flex their power?
Oprah can't do any of that.Her. She bought a tv station (much like buying professional teams, something only a very small portion of rich people can do).

If you think she only has that money based in entertainment and not business I don't know what to tell you.Money isn't everything.
Ask retired basketball players.
Power and influence is what matters.
People in the dominant society don't respect entertainers. Only black people respect entertainers.
