Angela Bennett net worth
Angela Bennett Net Worth: Angela Bennett is an Australian heiress and businesswoman who has a net worth of $2.3 billion. Angela Bennett, who was born Wright Prospecting co-founder Peter Wright, leads her father’s company and thus earns millions of dollars a year from Hamersley iron ore royalties. However, Bennett has resigned from Wright Prospecting’s board of directors due to ill health.
Her board seat was succeeded by the daughter of her late brother Michael Wright, who died in April 2012. That was in 2010, and Angela and Michael went public with a fortune of $2.3 billion. But since then, lower iron ore prices have cut her in half. In reality, siblings haven’t done much with their cash over the years, and the next generation hasn’t emerged with a clear leader. After Michael passed away, he left half of his to his 3 children, who gave professional advisors a bigger role in running the company. In addition, the family has become more active in pursuing new mining and real estate investment opportunities. Still, Angela Bennett is the second richest woman in Australia, behind Gina Rinehart.
