Spanx, the head of the underwear company, is only 41 years old. She has landed on the list of the world's richest men without her husband's help or inheritance. It is the youngest self-made billionaire.

Sarah Blakley (SaraBlakely) bare his upper body and stood at the conference table.

It was a Monday morning, at the headquarters of the underwear company Spanx in Atlanta. Its founder just attended the product research and development conference, and suddenly went out five minutes later.

Another minute passed, and she was only wearing a gray lace.

Black trousers and cream colored shoes went back to the conference room. She adjusted the costume before the dress mirror and complained loudly about the metal clasp on the early sample.

This conference room looks like a boudoir designed by Willy Wanka, the magical chocolate factory owner in WillyWonka (Charlie and chocolate factory): here is a jar of gum, with a dog's checked fabric.

In every detail of body sculpting underwear, she is always willing to face the public with a half naked image.

Everything in the company started with the magic product she invented and sold everywhere in her apartment.

The company's annual revenue is slightly below $250 million, net.

The rate is about 20%. In recent months, four Wall Street investment banks have assessed Spanx separately, with an average valuation of up to $1 billion. The Forbes reporter confirmed the data with the help of industry analysts.

Blakley, a wholly owned company that has not yet been listed, has no debts, has never received external investment, and has not paid a cent of advertising.

This year, she is only 41 years old. She has landed on the list of the world's richest men without her husband's help or inheritance. She is the youngest self-made billionaire.

The number of American women who earn ten figure family by their own strength is very few. They are all elites. Apart from brek, they include Oprah Winfery (OprahWinfrey) and Meg Whitman (MegWhitman).
