The American journalist-author 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 Shriver Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Chicago Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondershriver - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Maria) and a fashion line called “Maria Shriver Seduction”.
