Condoleeza Rice is one of the most powerful women in the world but she’s not a very rich woman

Condoleeza Rice is not one of the richest women in the world. In fact, if you measure wealth by the size of a woman’s bank account, Condoleeza Rice is not a very rich woman considering her reported estimated net worth falls between $1,305,023.00 and $2,900,000.00. Assuming the numbers reported accurately reflect her total net worth, she’s barely managing to hold on to her millionaire status.

Nevertheless, Condoleeza Rice was named by forbes as the #1 most  powerful woman in the world in 2005, the 2nd most powerful woman in the world in 2006, the 4th most powerful woman in the world in 2007, and the 7th most powerful woman in the world in 2008. Clearly you don’t necessarily need to be rich to be powerful.
