Youngest Self-Made Billionaire Works 14 Hours Daily

Hindustan Times · business

Luana Lopes Lara, 30, is the world's youngest self-made female billionaire with a $2.6 billion net worth. Despite her wealth, she continues to work 12 to 14 hours daily, with her lifestyle largely unchanged. Lara, co-founder of prediction market platform Kalshi, stated that her focus remains on building the company rather than indulging in luxuries. Kalshi's valuation has surged significantly, though it faces legal challenges regarding its prediction contracts, which some US states argue constitute illegal gambling.
