She’s a paper billionaire. Still, a remarkable achievement.

Better than a coin billionaire. Much heavier to tote your cash around.

Brings a tear to my eye seeing someone start out on third base and make it home to score.

Always nice to see a Mustang succeed . Congrats to her. Maybe she'll donate a new building or something.

She's a Kappa.

"She met her future husband [Michael] in 2013 in Aspen where both had gone on skiing trips separately, a little before Christmas. In a heartwarming interview with Vogue, Wolfe Herd revealed that she saw Michael for the first time while enjoying a long lunch. She approached him and gave him 'a hard time' for wasting such perfect weather for skiing.

Michael then told her that he did not know how to ski, which left Whitney baffled and she wondered why would someone without the knowledge of skiing come on a ski vacation. Next, Michael suggested that Whitney teach him how to ski. However, on the hill, Michael proved that he was indeed a pro skier and surprised Whitney with his skills."

She seems quite entrepreneurial and made the most of the opportunity. Congrats on her success and hope RGT and the Development team have been in close contact. She'll be a great speaker for the Cox School or maybe even commencement.

She has definitely had quite a ride from a young exec at Tinder, to a nasty departure, and then cofounding/taking the reigns at Bumble.

Or perhaps we can congratulate someone who had advantages, but instead of squandering them and being lazy, she figured out how to make them work for her, creating a new company and a ton of new jobs. Capitalism works.
