Malala Yousafzai tops annual list of highest-paid activists
In 2022 it looked like the activist’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Sunday (October 13) that Yousafzai is the highest-paid activist in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between September 2023 and September 2024, a nearly $60 million lead over her closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The Afghan activist has an estimated net worth of $275 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Yousafzai Burger” chain) in Kabul, a Football Team (the “Mingora Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderyousafzai - Afghanistan), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Malala) and a fashion line called “Malala Yousafzai Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Malala fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
