It’s not bad for about two years worth of income, even for a person as famously wealthy as Oprah Winfrey. The report comes right in the wake of a nice spike for Weight Watchers’ stock price, after the company released a quarterly earnings report that outperformed analyst expectations and boosted Weight Watchers’ earnings forecast for the year. By the rules of the financial world, it’s only fair that Oprah would reap a huge benefit from her Weight Watchers investment, since that very investment alone caused the stock to double in value over the course of a single day after it was announced.
When Oprah bought a ten percent stake in Weight Watchers in 2015, she did so with the option to buy an additional five percent at the price of $6.97 per share. Earlier this month, she exercised that option, and when she finally sold off what amounted to about a quarter of her stake in the company, it was at a price range of between $58.29 and $63.94 per share. In a press statement, Oprah made it clear that the sale was merely an attempt to balance out her investment portfolio, and not a sign that her partnership with Weight Watchers was drawing to a close: A bright future isn’t too risky a guess at this point, since stock in the company is now as high as nine times what it was when Oprah first signed on to the company, after seeing personal success in her own life with the program.

Furtick’s personal finances are the subject of some controversy lately, as the pastor recently gave his first public interview in seven years to a Charlotte TV station. During the interview, he holds firm on his decision not to reveal personal financial details, such as his salary with the church, saying that he knows he has “to have integrity” in his personal lifestyle as a public man of God and on the grounds that to reveal specific details of his salary would violate divine mandates about being discreet in one’s charitable contributions: Of course, it’s no secret that Furtick and his Elevation Church are doing very well, as the church continues to expand with expensive facilities that are reported to have cost millions of dollars to build.

Wood owns a little bit over 27 percent of Roku, so it doesn’t take a financial wizard to see that a 125 percent increase in value would be very good for his bank account. Just how good? One estimate had his net worth going from $652 million to $1.07 billion in the first few days of the surge, sending him comfortably over the billionaire’s threshold. Whether or not Wood remains a billionaire over the next few weeks is largely academic, since even if Roku’s stock has leveled off as of this writing it’s continued to hover around its high point following the earnings report.
