I will admit that I’m not a math genius, but these are numbers that are just staggering to me. Did you know that the richest woman in Illinois is more than 8 times wealthier than even Julia Roberts and I have so many questions.

This isn’t my math, by the way. Well, part of it is, but more on that in a second. Forbes is the publication that ranked Jennifer Pritzker as the richest woman in Illinois with a current net worth of $2.2 billion dollars. Remember that number, by the way.

To try and make sense of that $2.2 billion dollar number, I needed something smaller to compare it to so I decided to see what Julia Roberts net worth is. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Julia Roberts is worth approximately $250 million give or take a few bucks.

Here’s where my admittedly limited math skills were put to the test. Jennifer Pritzker, Illinois’ wealthiest woman is 8.8 times richer than even Julia Roberts.

But, wait…Julia Roberts is just a girl wanting you to love her…isn’t that right Pretty Woman?

I want to be clear that I’m happy and not envious of people that have success. It’s just that kind of money blows my mind. I consider Julia Roberts about as famous an actress as there’s ever been. The fact that Illinois’ wealthiest is more than 8 times that level is unreal.
