5) Sara Blakely
In 2000, at the age of 29, Sara Blakely founded Spanx, a line of body-shaping undergarments for women. With no experience in the fashion industry and only $5,000 in savings, Blakely turned Spanx into a multimillion-dollar business. Today, Spanx is a household name and Blakely is one of the richest self-made women in the world. Blakely has spoken about how she almost didn’t get started because she lacked financial backing and thought it would be easier to go work for someone else. No one’s going to invest in me. But thanks to her father, who agreed to provide her with low-interest loans until she got on her feet, she was able to start Spanx—and achieve success beyond anything she ever imagined.
