Her family iron ore prospecting fortune of $30.1 billion makes her Australia&#8217;s wealthiest person and the richest woman on the planet.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire,&#8221; she said by way of encouragement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Become one of those people who work hard, invest and build, and at the same time create employment and opportunities for others.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Boom. Almost too easy.<\/p>\n<p>Why are people poor? Rinehart blamed what she described as &#8220;socialist,&#8221; anti-business government policies, and urged Australian officials to lower the minimum wage and cut taxes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The millionaires and billionaires who choose to invest in Australia are actually those who most help the poor and our young,&#8221; she said. &#8220;This secret needs to be spread widely.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And now it&#8217;s out there.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you, rich people.
