    Oprah Winfrey

    3. Oprah Winfrey turned her life around.

    Iconic businesswoman Oprah Winfrey spent the first six years of her life in poverty while living with her grandmother. According to a 2005 report on theguardian.com, Oprah used to wear “overalls made from potato sacks” that earned her the title ‘Sack Girl’. However despite a lack of finances, Oprah remained positive and eventually transformed herself into a billionaire.
