A lot!!! Oprah Winfrey is currently worth $1.5 billion making her the richest African American. For three years she was officially the only Black Billionaire in the World. Of course there must have been a number of African dictators with undeclared Swiss or Cayman Island's numbered accounts.
Though Oprah started her life in poverty she was regarded as the richest woman in entertainment by the beginning of the 1990s. Later by the age of 41 Oprah had managed to replace veteran actor Bill Crosby on the Forbes 400 with her 340 million green backs. By the year 2000 her net worth had exceeded $800 million.
Oprah can be called the Billionaire with a heart of gold because of her philanthropic work which exceeds most other people. She had spent by the year 2005 an estimated $250 million on charitable causes. This was before the setting up of the $40 million school in South Africa.
